Abstract.In this note, the sole use of some Picone-type formulas and some comparison methods allows us to establish some oscillation criteria of some ODE, departing from some known trigonometric functions. Further developments in that direction can be found in the references [#!j1!#,#!k2!#,#!t1!#,#!t2!#,#!t3!#].
