Lower Toxicity of the Essential Oils With Repellent Potential Compared to Diethyltoluamide and Cypermethrin on
Article in Journal of toxicology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Objective: To evaluate the acute toxicity of essential oils with repellent potential, diethyltoluamide (DEET), and cypermethrin on Methods: Randomized preclinical trial with a factorial and controlled arrangement on three essential oils ( Results: Essential oils at concentrations of 0.1% and 1% showed similar toxicity to each other (mortality of 10%-20%) but significantly lower compared to cypermethrin and DEET (mortality of 100%). However, essential oils at 10% reached median mortality rates above 70%. Likewise, similar effects were observed at concentrations of 0.1% and 1.0% and at 24 and 48 h. The LC 50 at 24 h was 7.8% (CI 95%: 5.2-9.8), 6.1% (CI 95%: 4.9-7.4), and 9.8% (CI 95%: 8.9-10.6) for Conclusions: The evaluated essential oils showed lower acute toxicity compared to DEET and cypermethrin, depending on concentration and time.
