Temporal Distribution of Imidacloprid and Its Metabolites in Laying Hens: An Evaluation of the Potential Impact on Food Safety.
Article in Journal of agricultural and food chemistry, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Imidacloprid (IMI) is widely used in poultry houses in the United States to control darkling beetles. However, there is limited knowledge regarding the persistence and distribution of IMI and its metabolites in poultry products following acute exposure to subclinical concentrations. In this study, mature hens received a dose of imidacloprid (placebo, 1 mg/kg, or 10 mg/kg), and liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry was used to quantify IMI and its metabolites in tissues. IMI was below the limit of quantitation in plasma within 24 (1 mg/kg) and 48 h (10 mg/kg). At 10 mg/kg, IMI equivalents (sum of IMI and its metabolites) exceeded the regulatory threshold as established by the United States Code of Federal Regulations for pectoral and thigh muscle, brain, liver, spleen, kidney, fat, and eggs after 24 h. At 1 mg/kg, IMI equivalents surpassed the threshold for liver, spleen, and eggs after 24 h. These results suggest that low dose exposure to IMI may cause poultry products destined for human consumption to violate federal regulations.
