Observational StudyHighlightedHemodialysis employing molecular hydrogen (H2) enriched dialysis solution may improve dialysis related fatigue through impact on energy metabolismMHID-2151796PMID: 399341432025Scientific ReportsMasaaki Nakayama, Kimio Watanabe, Emiko Sato, Yugo Ito, Nozomi Kadota, Kasumi Konishi, et al.Hemodialysis employing molecular hydrogen (H2)-enriched dialysis solution rendered by water electrolysis (E-HD), has been reported to alleviate dialysis-related fatigue, but its association with metabolic profiles remains unclear. Eighty-one patients undergoing standard HD were classified into 3 groups [Group A (n = 25, 30.9%): fatigue with activity reduction—subgroups A1: chronic persistent fatig
Animal StudyIn VitroHighlightedHydrogen-rich water inhibits glucose and α,β -dicarbonyl compound-induced reactive oxygen species production in the SHR.Cg-Leprcp/NDmcr rat kidneyMHID-7164222PMID: 227767732012Medical Gas ResearchMasanori Katakura, Michio Hashimoto, Yoko Tanabe, Osamu ShidoBackground: Reactive oxygen species (ROS) production induced by α,β-dicarbonyl compounds and advanced glycation end products causes renal dysfunction in patients with type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome. Hydrogen-rich water (HRW) increases the H2 level in blood and tissues, thus reducing oxidative stress in animals as well as humans. In this study, we investigated the effects of HRW on glucose-
