Hydrogen Mitigated Doxorubicin-Induced Liver Injury via Nrf2/HO-1 Pathway Activation.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Drug-induced liver injury constitutes a major concern within the spectrum of drug-related pathologies. The precise mechanisms underlying doxorubicin (DOX)-induced liver injury remain inadequately elucidated. Hydrogen is known for its selective antioxidant properties and favorable safety profile; however, its protective effects against DOX-induced liver injury have not been fully clarified. In this study, a model of DOX-induced liver injury was established to evaluate hepatic function and pathological alteration, thereby assessing the therapeutic efficacy of hydrogen. Further investigations were conducted to quantify oxidative stress and inflammatory markers to elucidate the potential mechanisms involved. Hydrogen treatment significantly mitigated DOX-induced liver damage and inhibited hepatocyte fibrosis. Hydrogen was found to suppress apoptosis, reduce oxidative stress levels, and ameliorate inflammatory responses in the liver tissue of DOX mice. The protective effect was predominantly facilitated by the modulation of the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway. Importantly, the hepatoprotective effect of hydrogen was negated following the administration of an Nrf2 inhibitor in HepG2 cells. These results suggest that hydrogen may mitigate DOX-induced liver injury by activating the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway, consequently diminishing oxidative stress and inflammatory responses.
