In Vitro Control of Anisakis Larvae Using Nanoemulsified Thyme, Garlic, and Grape Seed Essential Oils Combined with Brines.
Article in Acta parasitologica, 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
introductionAnisakiasis is a zoonotic parasitic disease transmitted through consumption of fish, with increasing global cases. While thorough cooking kills Anisakis larvae, thermo-stable allergens can still cause allergic reactions. Traditional Mediterranean seafood methods such as marinating, salting, and brining, which lack heat treatment, pose a high risk of anisakiasis. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis study investigated the antilarval effects of nanoemulsions made from thyme, garlic, and grape seed essential oils combined with brines on Anisakis L3 larvae in vitro.
resultsLarvae were collected from mackerel, chub mackerel, anchovy, horse mackerel, and sardine, with 1746 larvae examined, mostly Anisakis type I and molecularly identified as A. pegreffii. Thyme oil's main components, carvacrol and thymol, showed strong antimicrobial and antioxidant effects and superior larvicidal activity at lower doses compared to garlic and grape seed oils. Garlic oil, rich in organosulfur compounds, was more effective in Lakerda samples. High salt brine alone inactivated larvae within 24 h. The thyme oil nanoemulsion had droplet sizes below 90 nm, enhancing stability, whereas garlic and grape seed oils had larger droplets.
conclusionThese results indicate that nanoemulsified essential oils, especially thyme oil, are promising natural agents to control Anisakis larvae in traditional sea-food products.
