Clinical Efficacy and Safety of Intralesional Bevacizumab in Dermatology: Insights from a Systematic Review.
Review in Dermatology practical & conceptual, 2025. 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
introductionBevacizumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody specifically targeting the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). In addition to cancer and ophthalmology, bevacizumab has other off-label uses. Among these, the treatment of hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia and hemangioma can be mentioned.
objectivesAlthough there are reports of successful treatments by bevacizumab, there is no systematic review on the topical use of this medication in dermatology. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate this topic.
methodsA systematic search on topical bevacizumab was done with MeSh-based keywords on online databases of PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science in December 2022. The records were evaluated, and the eligible articles were selected.
resultsWe reviewed related studies, and the disease name, treatment protocol (injection dosage and intervals), outcomes, and complications were summarized for conclusions.
conclusionsIn this study, we systematically reviewed related papers and summarized the use of bevacizumab in dermatology in four categories, including hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia, vascular malformation, vascular proliferation, and others (lichen planus, and basal cell carcinoma).
