Frequency and Predictors of Axillary Lymph Node Metastases in Iranian Women with Early Breast Cancer
Article in Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention : APJCP, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Background: Axillary lymph node metastasis is the most important predictive factor for recurrence risk and survival in patients with invasive breast carcinoma. The aim of this study was to determine factors associated with metastatic involvement of axillary lymph nodes in Iranian women with early breast cancer. Methods: This article reports a retrospective study of 774 patients with T1-T2 breast cancer who underwent resection of the primary tumor and axillary staging by SLNB and/or ALND between 2005 and 2015 at our institution. Results: Of the 774 patients included in this study, 35.5% (275 cases) had axillary lymph node involvement at the time of diagnosis. Factors associated with nodal involvement in univariate analyses were tumor size, lymphovascular invasion (LVI), tumor grade, ER/PR status and HER2 expression. All factors identified with univariate analyses were entered into a multivariate logistic regression model and tumor size (OR= 3.01, CI 2.01–4.49, P <0.001), ER/PR positivity (OR = 1.74, CI 1.1.16–2.62, P = 0.007) and presence of LVI (OR = 3.3.8, CI 2.31–4.95, P <0.001) remained as independent predictors of axillary lymph node involvement .Conclusions: In conclusion, the results of this study suggests that positive hormonal receptor status, LVI and tumor size are predictive factors for ALNM in Iranian women with early breast cancer.
