Does hydrogen water alleviate lung injury induced by one-lung ventilation?
Our data demonstrated that hydrogen water consumption ameliorated OLV-induced lung injury, and it may exert its protective role by its anti-inflammation, antioxidation and reducing NF-κB activity in the lung tissues.
Even a minor deterioration in renal function was independently associated with increased cIMT in the middle-aged male population and in the postmenopausal women. This finding underlines the importance of early detection of subjects with mildly decreased kidney function and the aggressive management of atherosclerotic risk factors in this population.
