Polydatin Modulates Inflammatory Cytokine Expression in Lipoteichoic Acid-Stimulated Human Dental-Pulp Stem Cells.

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
Gram-positive bacteria are responsible for initiating dental caries. In this process, lipoteichoic acid (LTA), which is expressed on Gram-positive bacteria cell walls, binds to the dental pulp cells, triggering an immune response, followed by inflammation and eventually pulp necrosis. Polydatin is a polyphenolic compound that has been shown to modulate inflammatory mediators in a manner favorable to healing. The purpose of this study was to assess levels of expression of the most prevalent cytokines in the inflamed pulp after polydatin treatment of LTA-stimulated human dental-pulp stem cells (hDPSCs). LTA-stimulated hDPSCs were treated with polydatin in three different concentrations (0.01 µM, 0.1 µM, and 1 µM). Interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-8 (IL-8), interleukin-10 (IL-10), and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) levels were measured using reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) were quantified. Treatment with all concentrations of polydatin significantly decreased IL-6 and TNF-α levels as evaluated by ELISA and RT-qPCR, respectively. In addition, a significant reduction was observed in IL-8 levels of mRNA and in ELISA, with 0.01 µM and with 1 µM of polydatin in RT-qPCR. On the other hand, IL-10 levels increased with all of the concentrations. In conclusion, polydatin treatment of LTA-stimulated hDPSCs modulated inflammatory cytokine production by suppressing IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-α levels while elevating IL-10 levels.
