From: Drinking hydrogen water and intermittent hydrogen gas exposure, but not lactulose or continuous hydrogen gas exposure, prevent 6-hydorxydopamine-induced Parkinson’s disease in rats

Figure 3

Behavioral assays of 6-OHDA-infused rat model of hemi-Parkinson’s disease. Circles represent the number of turns in 30 min after intraperitoneal injection of methamphetamine in each rat in each group. Mean and SEM are indicated in blue. A red line represents a putative threshold of 50 turns to conclude that development of PD is ameliorated. Results of five rats with control water and five with hydrogen water that we reported previously are indicated by closed circles [9]. Two additional rats with control water and two with hydrogen water are newly analyzed for this report (open circles). The five groups are statistically different (P < 0.001) by one-way ANOVA. The Dunnett’s multiple comparison post-hoc test reveals that hydrogen water (**P < 0.01) and intermittent hydrogen gas (*P < 0.05) are different from controls.
