Green synthesis of silver nanoparticle using Leonotis nepetifolia and their toxicity against vector mosquitoes of Aedes aegypti and Culex quinquefasciatus and agricultural pests of Spodoptera litura and Helicoverpa armigera.
Article in Environmental science and pollution research international, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 papers.
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
Pest insects causing damage to cultivable crops and food products by feeding, fecundity, and parasitizing livestock, also being a nuisance to human health. In consideration with human health, the World Health Organization reports that more than 50% of the world's population is presently at risk from mosquito-borne diseases. Mosquitoes are primary vectors for major dreadful diseases such as yellow fever, malaria, and dengue fever, which infect millions of human beings all over the world and kill millions of peoples every year. The present research work was carried out to evaluate the antifeedant, larvicidal, pupicidal, larval, and pupal duration activity of Leonotis nepetifolia-mediated silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) against Spodoptera litura, Helicoverpa armigera, Aedes aegypti, and Culex quinquefasciatus. Biosynthesized AgNPs were characterized through various techniques such as UV-Vis spectrometer, X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS), and zeta potential analysis. The AgNPs showed potential antifeedant activity of 78.77% and 82.16% against the larvae of S. litura and H. armigera, respectively. The maximum larval mortality rate (78.49% and 72.70%) and maximum pupal mortality rate (84.66% and 77.44%) were observed against S. litura and H. armigera. Mosquito larvae were tested with biosynthesized AgNPs, and recorded LC
