Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if intravenous hydrogen nanobubbles (HNBs) improve cardiovascular function and quality of life in adults. It will also explore the dose-dependent effects of HNBs when given through IV infusion.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

1. Do HNBs improve heart function and blood vessel health (e.g., blood pressure, ejection fraction, flow-mediated dilation)?
2. How do different doses of HNBs affect quality of life as measured by the SF-36 questionnaire?
3. Are there any safety or tolerability concerns with intravenous HNBs?

Researchers will compare different doses of HNBs (5 mL to 25 mL) to a placebo (normal saline) to evaluate their physiological and psychological effects. Participants will:

1. Receive intravenous infusions twice a week for 5 weeks (10 sessions in total)
2. Be assigned randomly to one of six groups (five different HNB doses or placebo)
3. Complete quality-of-life questionnaires and undergo cardiovascular and lab tests before and after the intervention

intravenous infusion of hydrogen nanobubbles (HNB) administered twice weekly over a 5-week period

This study investigated a novel intervention using intravenous hydrogen nanobubbles (HNBs), which are microscopic hydrogen gas bubbles encapsulated in liquid, offering enhanced stability, deep tissue penetration, and sustained antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. Unlike other hydrogen therapies (such as inhalation or hydrogen-rich water), this method delivers HNBs directly into the bloodstream. Participants were randomized into six groups: one control group receiving saline and five intervention groups receiving escalating doses of HNBs (5-25 mL) over 10 intravenous infusions in 5 weeks. This intervention is distinct for its dose-response design, intravenous delivery, and combined evaluation of cardiovascular function and quality of life (SF-36)-a patient-centered approach not commonly found in similar studies.
