Background: Falls among older adults are a leading cause of fractures, loss of independence, and need for long-term care. Community salons in Japan promote social participation and health activities among older adults. Hydrogen-rich water is widely used as a health product, but evidence in community settings remains limited.
Methods: We conducted a prospective observational study among 48 communit

Purpose Exercise induces transient physiological disruptions, including immune suppression and gastrointestinal (GI) disturbance. Molecular hydrogen (H₂), an endogenously produced gas with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, may play a protective role in this context. While the therapeutic potential of exogenous H₂ has been widely explored, little is known about endogenous hydrogen respo

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

Background/Aim: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease affecting synovial joints, often causing
to joint destruction and systemic comorbidities. Cervical spine involvement, especially atlantoaxial subluxation (AAS),
can lead to spinal cord compression and neurological deficits. While disease‑modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs)
are standard therapy, intolerance to agents like

Background: Persistent inflammation over time can cause gradual harm to the body. Molecular hydrogen has the potential to specifically counteract reactive oxygen species (ROS), reduce disease severity, and enhance overall health. Investigations of the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties of oral solid hydrogen capsules (OSHCs) are currently limited, prompting our examination of the benefic
