Anti-Inflammatory Effects of Polyphenols in Brain Microvascular Endothelial Cells Stimulated with TNF-α.

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
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is a structure that regulates the exchange of substances between the peripheral circulation and the central nervous system (CNS), thereby protecting this environment. An increase in BBB permeability may lead to the influx of inflammatory cells, resulting in neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration. The integrity of the BBB is maintained due to the specific properties of brain endothelial cells. Considering the importance of brain endothelial cells in the BBB during inflammatory processes, these cells may be a target for anti-inflammatory agents. Polyphenols are substances exhibiting the ability to decrease inflammation; therefore, in our research, we aimed to examine their effectiveness in a brain endothelial cell culture stimulated with the pro-inflammatory cytokine TNF-α. The tested polyphenols were myricetin, chrysin, resveratrol, and curcumin. ELISA tests revealed that myricetin and chrysin decreased the concentrations of the pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1ß, IL-6, and IL-8 secreted by brain endothelial cells. The results of flow cytometry indicate that chrysin and resveratrol are the most potent in downregulating the expression of
