Animal StudyHighlightedHydrogen-Rich Saline Protects Myocardium Against Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury in RatsMHID-7407969PMID: 195968252009Experimental Biology and MedicineQIANG SUN, ZHIMIN KANG, JIANMEI CAI, WENWU LIU, YUN LIU, John H Zhang, et al.Protective effect of hydrogen (H2) gas on cardiac ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury has been demonstrated previously. This study was designed to test the hypothesis that hydrogen-rich saline (saline saturated with molecular hydrogen), which is easy to use, induces cardioprotection against ischemia (30 min) and reperfusion (24 h) injury in rats. Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats underwent 30-min occlu
