The 2024 European Union report on pesticide residues in food.
Article in EFSA journal. European Food Safety Authority, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Under European Union legislation (Article 32, Regulation (EC) No 396/2005), the European Food Safety Authority publishes an annual report assessing pesticide residue levels in food. In 2024, 9842 samples were analysed as part of the EU-coordinated multiannual control programme subset, of which 1.2% were found to be non-compliant. National sampling procedures were used in 86,449 samples where the non-compliant rate was 1.8%. Increased import control programme accounted for 39,433 samples with a 3.6% non-compliant rate. Acute and chronic dietary exposure was estimated by providing the probabilities of exceeding the health-based guidance values (HBGV) for the pesticide residues in food. Overall, the estimated dietary risk was found to be low for most of the EU subpopulation groups and assessed substances. Recommendations are provided to risk managers to increase the effectiveness of European control systems and to ensure a high level of consumer protection throughout the EU.
