Quick summary

Study at a glance

Evidence type

Preclinical

Population or model

Three-month-old zebrafish infected with spring viraemia of carp virus, with additional ZF4-cell experiments.

Intervention and dose

SVCV-infected zebrafish were kept in nano-bubble H₂ water; parallel cell experiments used nano-H₂ water-treated medium. · Nano-bubble H₂ water concentration: approximately 0.7 ppm.

Duration

See the linked full methods for assay-specific exposure and follow-up schedules.

Reported result

Article-reported result excerpt (24 words maximum): “However, in aquaculture water rearing zebrafish, hydrogen nano-bubbles reduced more quickly.” This excerpt is not a complete result summary; consult the linked full text for all positive and null findings.

Main limitation

Preclinical evidence only; findings do not establish a treatment effect in people. Funding or grant information is reported in the full article. No explicit conflict statement was identified in the machine-readable full article; absence is not inferred.

Methods

Population or model

Three-month-old zebrafish infected with spring viraemia of carp virus, with additional ZF4-cell experiments.

Sample

Preclinical zebrafish and cell study; no single consolidated sample total is stated in the article.

Duration

See the linked full methods for assay-specific exposure and follow-up schedules.

Intervention

SVCV-infected zebrafish were kept in nano-bubble H₂ water; parallel cell experiments used nano-H₂ water-treated medium.

Hydrogen form

H₂ dissolved in drinking water — H₂ only unless the full text explicitly reports oxygen co-delivery.

Dose or H₂ specification

Nano-bubble H₂ water concentration: approximately 0.7 ppm.

Comparator

SVCV-infected zebrafish kept in ordinary aquaculture water and corresponding untreated cell controls.

Reported, not endorsed

Outcomes and reported result

Outcomes measured

Mortality, viral replication, histopathology, reactive oxygen species and inflammatory cytokines in zebrafish, plus cell assays.

Reported result

Article-reported result excerpt (24 words maximum): “However, in aquaculture water rearing zebrafish, hydrogen nano-bubbles reduced more quickly.” This excerpt is not a complete result summary; consult the linked full text for all positive and null findings.

Extraction completeness

The complete machine-readable article was checked for source identity, methods, intervention quantities, results, tables, funding and conflict declarations. This public record is based on the full article.

A reported association, difference or mechanism is not automatically a clinical benefit.

Interpretation limits

Limitations and applicability

Main methodological cautions

Preclinical evidence only; findings do not establish a treatment effect in people. Funding or grant information is reported in the full article. No explicit conflict statement was identified in the machine-readable full article; absence is not inferred.

Applies directly to

Applies to the reported animal, cell or tissue model, not directly to patients.
