Toxicity of Ulva lactuca and green fabricated silver nanoparticles against mosquito vectors and their impact on the genomic DNA of the dengue vector Aedes aegypti.
Article in IET nanobiotechnology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Marine seaweeds are known to have a potential role against microbial and pesticidal activities. Ulva lactuca, a green macroalgae extract analysed through gas chromatography mass spectrometry reveals 31 compounds. Resistance of mosquito vectors to synthetic insecticides remains a major problem. Discovering and applying natural agents to act against disease vectors is challenging. The activities of the extract and nano-fabricated green synthesised silver nanoparticles were checked for use against Aedes aegypti and Culex pipiens. The crude extract and synthesised silver nanoparticles exhibited a notable larvicidal effect, and very effective inhibition of pupal and adult emergence. Inhibition of adult emergence of Ae.aegypti was 97.7% and in Cu.pipiens, it was 93.3%. Our genotypic study of Deoxyribonucleic acid from treated larvae utilising random primers MA-09, MA-12 and MA-26 revealed damaged nucleotide sequences when compared with the controls. The antimicrobial activity of both the extract and green synthesised nanomaterials showed prominent activity against pathogenic drug resistant bacteria. Our results contribute to further development of eco-friendly insecticides with lower cost of preparation. This could further contribute to further research helping future generations to be free from these deadly disease-causing vectors and pathogenic microbes.
