Human studies on molecular hydrogen

731 studies · 144 human H₂-therapy · filter and search below.

How to use this database

This overview collects 731 scientific papers on molecular hydrogen (H₂). By default you see the 144 studies in which humans were actually treated with H₂ — the therapeutic core.

Uncheck “human H₂-therapy only” to see all 731:

  • 144 human H₂-therapy — people were treated
  • 68 measurement-method — measured in humans (e.g. breath test/tracer), not therapy
  • 350 preclinical — animal and cell studies
  • 169 reviews & meta-analyses

Filter by method, indication or evidence level, use the search — or just click a tag (e.g. “RCT”, “Inhalation”). For how we select and grade studies, see the Methodology.
