Effect of H2-enriched HD solution on blood pressure (BP) profiles. Changes in diurnal blood pressure differences (ΔBP BP at the start of dialysis BP in the evening) on hemodialysis day (a) and defined daily dose (DDD) of antihypertensive agents (b). There were significant reductions in the two parameters at 12 months, compared to baseline, following treatment with H2-enriched HD solution (*p < 0.05) (courtesy of Dr. Hodaka Suzuki, Higashi-Horai Clinic, Fukushima). Changes in BP before (left) and after (right) regular HD sessions during the 6-month trial of H2-enriched HD solution (c). There were significant reductions of BP, (p < 0.05, each) (modified from ref. [29])
