sec-first\">\n<h3 id=\"sec-a.i.b.q.atitle\">Background<\/h3>\n<p class=\"p p-first-last\">We have treated 4 patients of acute erythematous skin diseases with fever and\/or pain by H<sub>2<\/sub> enriched intravenous fluid. We also added data from two volunteers for assessing the mode of H<sub>2<\/sub> delivery to the skin for evaluation of feasibility of H<sub>2<\/sub> treatment for this type of skin diseases.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"sec-a.i.b.q.b\" class=\"sec\">\n<h3 id=\"sec-a.i.b.q.btitle\">Methods<\/h3>\n<p class=\"p p-first-last\">All of the four patients received intravenous administration of 500\u2009ml of H2 enriched fluid in 30\u2009min for more than 3\u2009days except in one patient for only once. From two volunteers (one for intravenous H2 administration and the other for H2 inhalation), blood samples were withdrawn serially and air samples were collected from a heavy duty plastic bag covering a leg, before, during and after H2 administration. These samples were checked for H2 concentration immediately by gas chromatography. Multiple physiological parameters and blood chemistry data were collected also.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"sec-a.i.b.q.c\" class=\"sec\">\n<h3 id=\"sec-a.i.b.q.ctitle\">Results<\/h3>\n<p class=\"p p-first-last\">Erythema of these 4 patients and associated symptoms improved significantly after the H2 treatment and did not recur. Administration of H2 did not change physiological parameters and did not cause deterioration of the blood chemistry. The H2 concentration in the blood from the volunteers rapidly increased with H2 inhalation and slowly decreased with cessation of H2 particularly in the venous blood, while H2 concentration of the air from the surface of the leg showed much slower changes even after H2 inhalation was discontinued, at least during the time of sample collection.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"sec-a.i.b.q.d\" class=\"sec sec-last\">\n<h3 id=\"sec-a.i.b.q.dtitle\">Conclusion<\/h3>\n<p class=\"p p-first-last\">An improvement in acute erythemtous skin diseases followed the administration of H2 enriched fluid without compromising the safety. The H2 delivery study of two volunteers suggested initial direct delivery and additional prolonged delivery possibly from a slowly desaturating reservoir in the skin to the surface.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"sec-a.j.a\" class=\"tsec sec\">\n<div class=\"goto jig-ncbiinpagenav-goto-container\"><a class=\"tgt_dark page-toc-label jig-ncbiinpagenav-goto-heading\" href=\"#\" title=\"Go to other sections in this page\" role=\"button\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-haspopup=\"true\">Go to:<\/a><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"head no_bottom_margin ui-helper-clearfix\" id=\"sec-a.j.atitle\">Introduction<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p p-first-last\">Severe and acute erythematous skin diseases usually require immediate medical attention, particularly when the symptoms involve severe pain and\/or fever. Treatment may have to be initiated before spending enough time and effort for investigating real causes of the rush or functional state of the other organs and the steroid agents tend to be the first choice of the treatment. However, the complications from the general use of steroid have been well known and therefore, non-dermatological clinics like ours frequently encounter difficulty in finding quick remedies with minimal side effects. Erythema is reddening of the skin due to inflammatory mechanisms either as primary culprits or secondary features and locally released inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-\u03b1, IL-1,8, GM-CSF etc., stimulate phagocytes and inflammatory cells and results in production of ROS (reactive oxygen species)[<a href=\"#B1\" rid=\"B1\" class=\" bibr popnode\" role=\"button\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-haspopup=\"true\">1<\/a>,<a href=\"#B2\" rid=\"B2\" class=\" bibr popnode\" role=\"button\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-haspopup=\"true\">2<\/a>]. The interaction between the ROS and nitric oxide leads to the formation of peroxynitrite radicals and also by the iron-mediated Fenton reaction, hydroxyl radicals, both of which are highly reactive and destructive to the cell membrane and mitochondria and polyunsaturated fatty acids(PUFAs) [<a href=\"#B3\" rid=\"B3\" class=\" bibr popnode\" role=\"button\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-haspopup=\"true\">3<\/a>]. However, ROS dismutases, which are abundant in the skin and also currently available medications are ineffective to neutralize these most destructive radicals except Edaravone [<a href=\"#B4\" rid=\"B4\" class=\" bibr popnode\" role=\"button\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-haspopup=\"true\">4<\/a>], of which use is strictly limited for the treatment of acute cerebral infarction patients with normal kidney and liver function. H2 may be useful in these situations because it immediately and simultaneously neutralizes both peroxynitrites and hydroxyl radicals [<a href=\"#B5\" rid=\"B5\" class=\" bibr popnode\" role=\"button\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-haspopup=\"true\">5<\/a>] and also H2 is known to cause no significant side effects since it is produced in the human intestine as a fermentation process, although not continuously[<a href=\"#B6\" rid=\"B6\" class=\" bibr popnode\" role=\"button\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-haspopup=\"true\">6<\/a>]. We report four cases of acute erythematous skin disease patients who were suffering from skin rash and also from associated symptoms such as severe pain and\/or fever. They were treated with regular medications first and when the conventional treatments failed, then, intravenous fluids which contained H2 were added after a proper consent form was signed. However, H2 administration may not be therapeutic unless enough concentration stays at the surface layer of the skin for a sufficient period and the concentration should be higher than that of internally produced H2. Two volunteers participated in a H2 delivery study where H2 concentration in the blood and in the air at the surface of the skin was measured before, during and after H2 administration by inhalation or by intravenous fluid infusion.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"sec-a.j.b\" class=\"tsec sec\">\n<div class=\"goto jig-ncbiinpagenav-goto-container\"><a class=\"tgt_dark page-toc-label jig-ncbiinpagenav-goto-heading\" href=\"#\" title=\"Go to other sections in this page\" role=\"button\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-haspopup=\"true\">Go to:<\/a><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"head no_bottom_margin ui-helper-clearfix\" id=\"sec-a.j.btitle\">Methods<\/h2>\n<div id=\"sec-a.j.b.b\" class=\"sec sec-first\">\n<h3 id=\"sec-a.j.b.btitle\">Patients and volunteers<\/h3>\n<p class=\"p p-first-last\">Before recruiting the patients and volunteers to the current study, a complete PARQ conference was given to all of the patients and their family and to volunteers.

However, the pain increased and the left side of the face became numb. In addition, blisters in the erythematous area coalesced and formed ulcer-like appearance. The patient also noticed left ptosis and double vision and became unable to open the mouth, which made oral intake impossible. The patient was admitted to the hospital for deteriorated general condition with dehydration, severe pain and fever. On admission, the patient was found to have partial paralysis of the left 3\u2009rd, 5th and 6th cranial nerves in addition to severe erythema with edema and small ulcers, covering the left side of the face and frontal region. The hydration treatment was initiated with 3 bags of 500\u2009ml glucose and electrolyte solution and continued for 6\u2009days with a decreasing dose during the hospitalization. Initially, two bags of these solutions (500\u2009ml) had been enriched with H2. No antibiotic was given. Before the infusion therapy, the patient was unable to open his left eye and the mouth (Figure\u2009<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC3407032\/figure\/F1\/\" target=\"figure\" class=\"fig-table-link figpopup\" rid-figpopup=\"F1\" rid-ob=\"ob-F1\" co-legend-rid=\"lgnd_F1\" rel=\"noopener\"><span>1<\/span><\/a>, upper left).

Since cranial nerve functions recovered also and he became able to take oral soft nutrients, intravenous hydration was decreased to 2 bags of H2- enriched glucose-electrolyte solution (esuron B,200\u2009ml\/bag), daily. By the 6th hospital day, the patient was eating a regular food and his dehydration was corrected. He had no pain and the severe inflammation of the skin disappeared.

H2 gets in the bag by diffusion through the bag wall. Therefore, the bag was neither opened nor altered in anyway and this method eliminated the chance of contamination completely. Although H2 concentration in the water tank was stable at the saturation (0.8\u2009mM), the H2 concentration in the bag varied with the duration of immersion (Figure\u2009<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC3407032\/figure\/F3\/\" target=\"figure\" class=\"fig-table-link figpopup\" rid-figpopup=\"F3\" rid-ob=\"ob-F3\" co-legend-rid=\"lgnd_F3\" rel=\"noopener\"><span>3<\/span><\/a>) and with the material of the bag wall and by the method of infusion (Figure\u2009<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC3407032\/figure\/F4\/\" target=\"figure\" class=\"fig-table-link figpopup\" rid-figpopup=\"F4\" rid-ob=\"ob-F4\" co-legend-rid=\"lgnd_F4\" rel=\"noopener\"><span>4<\/span><\/a>). The bag with soft and thin wall shortened the time required for the content of the bag to reach the saturation. However, the speed of loosing H2 concentration in these bags was greater than in harder and thicker wall bags, when the bag was taken out of the tank and exposed in the air for the intravenous infusion treatment. However, we have chosen the bags with softer and thinner wall because the H2 concentration, measured at the tip of the infusion catheter 30\u2009min after the initiation of infusion, still remained approximately 90% of the original concentration and this was more convenient than using a harder and thicker wall bag with very long immersion time for saturation. By keeping the H2 enriched IV bag in another hydrogen water bag or in a bag with ice water during the infusion, the speed of desaturation decreased. However, these arrangements made the simple intravenous infusion procedure more cumbersome and complicated than searching and using a larger vein and finishing rapid intravenous infusion from a bare, soft and thin bag within 30\u2009min. H2 gas was prepared for inhalation with an apparatus, made in our hospital by Yoji Nishijima M.D., using a H2 generator (HG200, GL Science, Tokyo, Japan), oxygen inlet and an air compressor. An appropriate concentration of H2 gas was mixed with the air and additional oxygen as needed and provided to the patient through a regular facial mask. The patients inhaled the gas by their own effort and speed but for the patients, who were on mechanical ventilation, the gas was given through the respirator.<\/p>\n<p><!--fig ft0--><!--fig mode=article f1--><\/p>\n<div class=\"fig iconblock whole_rhythm\" id=\"F3\" co-legend-rid=\"lgnd_F3\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC3407032\/figure\/F3\/\" target=\"figure\" rid-figpopup=\"F3\" rid-ob=\"ob-F3\" rel=\"noopener\"><!--fig\/graphic|fig\/alternatives\/graphic mode=\"anchored\" m1--><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"figure\" data-largeobj=\"\" data-largeobj-link-rid=\"largeobj_idm140669856253392\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC3407032\/figure\/F3\/\" target=\"figure\" rid-figpopup=\"F3\" rid-ob=\"ob-F3\" rel=\"noopener\"><\/a><a class=\"inline_block ts_canvas\" href=\"\/core\/lw\/2.0\/html\/tileshop_pmc\/tileshop_pmc_inline.html?title=Click%20on%20image%20to%20zoom&amp;p=PMC3&amp;id=3407032_2045-9912-2-14-3.jpg\" target=\"tileshopwindow\" rel=\"noopener\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"ts_bar small\" title=\"Click on image to zoom\"><\/div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"An external file that holds a picture, illustration, etc.\nObject name is 2045-9912-2-14-3.jpg\" title=\"Click on image to zoom\" class=\"tileshop\" src=\"https:\/\/hho-bulgaria.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/2045-9912-2-14-3.jpg\"><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"largeobj-link align_right\" id=\"largeobj_idm140669856253392\" style=\"display: none;\"><a target=\"object\" rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC3407032\/figure\/F3\/?report=objectonly\">Open in a separate window<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"icnblk_cntnt\" id=\"lgnd_F3\">\n<div><a class=\"figpopup\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC3407032\/figure\/F3\/\" target=\"figure\" rid-figpopup=\"F3\" rid-ob=\"ob-F3\" rel=\"noopener\">Figure 3<\/a><\/div>\n<p><!--caption a7--><\/p>\n<div class=\"caption\">\n<p><strong>H<\/strong><sub><strong>2<\/strong><\/sub><strong>concentration in IV bags after immersion in H<\/strong><sub><strong>2<\/strong><\/sub><strong>water.<\/strong> Bag A (with soft and thin wall) vs. Bag B(with hard and thick wall).

multiple medications for the treatment of depressed level of consciousness, elevated intracranial pressure, pneumonia, abnormal diuretic hormone etc. are very common and immediate discontinuation of these regimens due to suspected drug eruption is rather difficult, if not impossible. It is well known that in acute erythematous diseases of the skin, ROS (reactive oxygen species) produced by migrated inflammatory cells and others destroy the cell membrane and aggravate the skin disease [<a href=\"#B1\" rid=\"B1\" class=\" bibr popnode\" role=\"button\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-haspopup=\"true\">1<\/a>,<a href=\"#B2\" rid=\"B2\" class=\" bibr popnode\" role=\"button\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-haspopup=\"true\">2<\/a>]. Peroxynitrites and hydroxyl- radicals are most potent and cannot be eliminated by clinically available medications except only by edaravone [<a href=\"#B4\" rid=\"B4\" class=\" bibr popnode\" role=\"button\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-haspopup=\"true\">4<\/a>]. However, edaravone is approved only for acute stage of cerebral infarction in Japan and the high cost of the medication and possibility of side effects make frequent and prolong use difficult. In addition, edaravone becomes a radical by itself after neutralizing the surrounding radicals which needs to be neutralized by other materials. On the other hand, H2 inactivates peroxynitrites and hydroxyl radicals directly and immediately without any risk of side effects and also H2 can be produced easily with low cost. However, H2 until this time has been provided in drinking water or as a gas and could not be administered when oral intake or inhalation is prohibited from a medical condition.<\/p>\n<p>Recently, a new technique allowed hydrogen to be dissolved safely [<a href=\"#B7\" rid=\"B7\" class=\" bibr popnode\" role=\"button\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-haspopup=\"true\">7<\/a>] in the bag of intravenous fluid solution by simply immersing the bag in a H2 water producing container. H2 gets in the bag by simple diffusion and therefore, no need for opening the bag or any alteration of the bag, which eliminates the risk of contamination and infection. All of our 4 cases in this report were unable to drink or swallow and it was thought that H2 could be given only by intravenous route. The safety monitoring with physiological parameters and laboratory studies showed no ill effects on those multiple indices and organ function such as kidney and liver function, by this method of H2 administration (Table\u2009<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC3407032\/table\/T1\/\" target=\"table\" class=\"fig-table-link figpopup\" rid-figpopup=\"T1\" rid-ob=\"ob-T1\" co-legend-rid=\"\" rel=\"noopener\"><span>1<\/span><\/a>). Even in the case 2 with thrombocytopenia, no other hematological worsening was noted. Clinical symptoms of the skin diseases of all four patients improved rather rapidly and significantly. Therefore, it may be reasonable to assume that H2 infusion in these situations was quite safe and effective. However, it is still possible that the skin condition improved for reasons unrelated to H2 administration since the pattern of improvement was not uniform and a clear dose response relation could not be obtained. The clinical effectiveness of hydrogen is usually explained by its specific scavenger ability against hydroxyradicals and peroxynitrites. The first line of the defense in the skin is keratinocytes which are located in the outermost layer of the skin and known to produce a large quantity of ROS (reactive oxygen species), primarily for antimicrobial effects and reduction of microbial virulence factors at high level [<a href=\"#B8\" rid=\"B8\" class=\" bibr popnode\" role=\"button\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-haspopup=\"true\">8<\/a>]. Although many ROS scavengers and dismutases are present in the skin where severe oxidation continues all the time, it is essential to maintain a low level ROS for regulatory purposes [<a href=\"#B9\" rid=\"B9\" class=\" bibr popnode\" role=\"button\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-haspopup=\"true\">9<\/a>]. These residual ROS and ROS overflow from overproduction can be the source of peroxynitrites. In addition, intracellular peroxynitrites are generated by the Nox 1 ((NADPH oxidase 1) -derived ROS and intracellular NO (nitric oxide), since Nox1 is localized in the nucleus of keratinocytes [<a href=\"#B10\" rid=\"B10\" class=\" bibr popnode\" role=\"button\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-haspopup=\"true\">10<\/a>]. Peroxynitrites activates p38MAPK pathways, which are related to production of inflammatory cytokines, such as TNF-\u03b1 and IL-1, and many others [<a href=\"#B11\" rid=\"B11\" class=\" bibr popnode\" role=\"button\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-haspopup=\"true\">11<\/a>]. The control of these intracellular processes by diffusible H2 is important and thus H2 may have reduced the level of inflammation seen in erythematous skin disease. In the present H2 concentration study, the blood concentration was much lower when H2 was given via intravenous route as compared to inhalation. However, in the both modes of H2 administration, the arterial blood concentration was elevated first and then venous blood but the H2 concentration in the air around the skin increased very slowly and then continued to increase even after H2 administration by inhalation stopped. These findings may imply that the slowness is related to the slow blood flow compartment [<a href=\"#B12\" rid=\"B12\" class=\" bibr popnode\" role=\"button\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-haspopup=\"true\">12<\/a>] and\/or permeability barrier of lipid-water layers of the skin tissue itself [<a href=\"#B13\" rid=\"B13\" class=\" bibr popnode\" role=\"button\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-haspopup=\"true\">13<\/a>] and also that the skin may function as a reservoir for a prolonged release of H2. The slow but prolonged release of H2 directly from the skin is most advantageous as a therapeutic regimen of the skin diseases, since the erythematous skin disease involves outermost layer of the skin which is exposed to continuous oxidation and possesses rather scarce blood vessels. If the production of ROS is continuous, the delivery of H2 needs to be longer. The skin with a slower desaturation compartment provides better opportunity for utilization of intravenous infusion as a useful route for H2 administration, since the slower compartment may accumulate more H2 with prolonged administration rather than higher concentration with relatively shorter administration, such as by inhalation. Intravenous administration of H2 was more convenient and consistent from our experience, since it was usually difficult to keep a facial mask on conscious but neurologically compromised patients for a prolonged time for H2 inhalation. The limitations of our study include small number of patients and volunteers. Our conclusions from the results of this study need to be confirmed by a study with more patients and volunteers. Possibility of presence of a slow H2 desaturation compartment in the skin needs to be examined with a much longer study time. Because this study was done on volunteers, our study time was limited and too short for the analysis of the slow releasing compartment. In addition, no tissue biopsy was done from the skin. Therefore, no final diagnosis of the skin disease was available. Future studies will clarify those issues and provide a best selection of H2 delivery method based upon the nature of the disease and the condition of the patient.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p p-last\">In summary, erythema of these 4 patients and associated symptoms, such as intensive pain in the face with neurological deficits and skin ulcers, fever and edematous hardening of the entire body, rather mild but with acute fever and nausea and headache, mild but worsening and spreading skin lesions with red rush all improved significantly after the H2 treatment and did not recur. The H2 delivery study of two volunteers showed that the concentration of H2 in the blood rapidly increased with H2 inhalation and slowly decreased with cessation of H2, particularly in the venous blood. However, H2 concentration of the air samples in the plastic bag covering a leg showed much slower changes and continued to increase even after H2 inhalation was discontinued, at least during the time of sample collection.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"sec-a.j.e\" class=\"tsec sec\">\n<div class=\"goto jig-ncbiinpagenav-goto-container\"><a class=\"tgt_dark page-toc-label jig-ncbiinpagenav-goto-heading\" href=\"#\" title=\"Go to other sections in this page\" role=\"button\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-haspopup=\"true\">Go to:<\/a><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"head no_bottom_margin ui-helper-clearfix\" id=\"sec-a.j.etitle\">Competing interests<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p p-first-last\">The authors declare that they have no competing interests and were not compensated at all by any pharmaceutical and biotechnology company to contribute this article to the peer-reviewed scientific literature.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"sec-a.j.f\" class=\"tsec sec\">\n<div class=\"goto jig-ncbiinpagenav-goto-container\"><a class=\"tgt_dark page-toc-label jig-ncbiinpagenav-goto-heading\" href=\"#\" title=\"Go to other sections in this page\" role=\"button\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-haspopup=\"true\">Go to:<\/a><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"head no_bottom_margin ui-helper-clearfix\" id=\"sec-a.j.ftitle\">Authors\u2019 contributions<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p p-first-last\">The authors equally contributed to the production of this article.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"sec-a.k.a\" class=\"tsec bk-sec\">\n<div class=\"goto jig-ncbiinpagenav-goto-container\"><a class=\"tgt_dark page-toc-label jig-ncbiinpagenav-goto-heading\" href=\"#\" title=\"Go to other sections in this page\" role=\"button\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-haspopup=\"true\">Go to:<\/a><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"head no_bottom_margin ui-helper-clearfix\" id=\"sec-a.k.atitle\">Acknowledgements<\/h2>\n<p><!--\/article\/back\/sec\/--><\/p>\n<p class=\"p p-first-last\">The authors would like to thank Miz Company for technical assistance for setting up the hydrogen water tank and initial measurement of H2 concentration in the intravenous fluid bag.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"ref-list-a.k.b\" class=\"tsec sec\">\n<div class=\"goto jig-ncbiinpagenav-goto-container\"><a class=\"tgt_dark page-toc-label jig-ncbiinpagenav-goto-heading\" href=\"#\" title=\"Go to other sections in this page\" role=\"button\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-haspopup=\"true\">Go to:<\/a><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"head no_bottom_margin ui-helper-clearfix\" id=\"ref-list-a.k.btitle\">References<\/h2>\n<div class=\"ref-list-sec sec\" id=\"reference-list\">\n<ul class=\"back-ref-list\" style=\"list-style-type:decimal;\">\n<li id=\"B1\"><span class=\"mixed-citation\">Robert C, Kupper TS.
