Animal StudyIn VitroHighlightedLong-term administration of hydrogen-rich water enhances quality of life in diabetic rats and reduces renal neoplasm incidence through modulation of inflammatory and metabolic pathwaysMHID-4061148PMID: 406876592025Translational Andrology and UrologyQijie Chen, Shaoqing Yu, Yating Pan, Hong Tang, Yang Wang, Ninghan Feng, et al.Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by persistent hyperglycemia, leading to severe systemic complications and reduced quality of life. Current therapies often fail to comprehensively alleviate diabetic complications, highlighting the need for novel approaches. Animal studies and clinical trials have demonstrated the therapeutic potential of molecular hy
Literature ReviewHighlightedBeneficial biological effects and the underlying mechanisms of molecular hydrogen - comprehensive review of 321 original articlesMHID-7479916PMID: 264839532015Medical Gas ResearchMasatoshi Ichihara, Sayaka Sobue, Mikako Ito, Masafumi Ito, Masaaki Hirayama, Kinji OhnoTherapeutic effects of molecular hydrogen for a wide range of disease models and human diseases have been investigated since 2007. A total of 321 original articles have been published from 2007 to June 2015. Most studies have been conducted in Japan, China, and the USA. About three-quarters of the articles show the effects in mice and rats. The number of clinical trials is increasing every year. I
