Zanthoxylum bungeanum Essential Oil Nanoemulsion: Preparation, Characterization, and Insecticidal Activity Against Tribolium castaneum.
Article in Chemistry & biodiversity, 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
Zanthoxylum bungeanum essential oil (ZBEO) is a promising botanical insecticide, but its volatility, poor stability, and low water solubility limit practical application. This study developed a ZBEO nanoemulsion (ZBEO-NE) and evaluated its physicochemical properties, insecticidal activity, repellency, stability-related bioactivity retention, and cytotoxicity. GC-MS identified linalool (53.78%) as the major component. The resulting ZBEO-NE had a mean droplet size of 128.90 nm, a polydispersity index of 0.20, and a zeta potential of -41.90 mV. TEM revealed uniformly distributed spherical droplets, and rheological analysis showed shear-thinning behavior. The formulation remained physically stable during 30 days of storage and after heating and centrifugation. Against Tribolium castaneum adults and larvae, ZBEO-NE showed lower contact toxicity than free ZBEO, whereas its fumigant activity increased with exposure time. LC
