Pesticides and Trace Element Residues in Honey from Northern Croatia.
Article in Foods (Basel, Switzerland), 2026. 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
The rapid translocation of pesticide and metal residues in the environment and their entry into the food chain pose a significant risk to human health. Given the high global consumption of honey, quality control emphasizes the need for continuous monitoring and risk assessment. To evaluate contamination levels in honey from northern Croatia, a region with intensive agricultural land use, 38 comb honey and 22 extracted honey samples were collected by purposive one-time sampling in June 2023. These samples were analyzed for 190 pesticides using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) and gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS), and for 17 trace metal(loid)s using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). The highest detection frequencies were observed for fipronil-sulfone, trifloxystrobin, and coumaphos in comb honey, and for
