Assessment of the Oil Release and Insect Repellent Activity of Spray-Dried Gum Arabic/Citronella Oil Microcapsules.
Article in Polymers, 2026. 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
Essential oils are natural insect repellents, which can be microencapsulated and protected by wall materials to provide prolonged protection against insects. The protection and release of these repellents depend on various parameters, including morphology and production conditions. Herein, twenty-seven gum arabic/citronella essential oil (GA/CEO) spray-dried microcapsules were produced by using three wall-to-core ratios (3:1, 4:1, 6:1), three inlet temperatures (120, 150, 180 °C), and three feed rates (1, 2.5, 5 mL/min). The morphology, particle size, encapsulation efficiency, and release rates were evaluated. The insect repellent activity of microcapsules (0.25, 0.5, and 1 g) against
