Does anyone know what the anti-inflammatory agent is in hibiscus rosa-sinensis?

I really need the answers to this question baaadly. Thanks, guys!

Does anyone know what the anti-inflammatory agent is in hibiscus rosa-sinensis?
Hibiscus sabdariffa contains anthocyanidines ( "fllavylium salts" ) which are reported having anti inflammatory capacity:

The dried and pulverized leaves and extracts are used in Thai-medicine as anti inflammatory agent:

Hibiscus rosa sinensis should contain similar anthocyanidines, but effects like sabdariffa are not reported, might be in cause of lesser quantity or quality of active agent.
Reply:I did`t know the hibiscus has this property. but you can try on the Hispanic stores for arnica unguent or Natural Arnica putting to boil and drink it,
