Selective Axillary Dissection after Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy in Patients with Lymph-Node-Positive Breast Cancer (CLYP Study): The Radio-Guided Occult Lesion Localization Technique for Biopsy-Proven Metastatic Lymph Nodes.

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
(1) Background: To help to refine the accuracy of sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) in breast cancer (BC) patients with biopsy-proven nodal disease prior to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT), a method of marking the biopsy-proven positive LN at diagnosis to enable its removal during surgery was proposed. The aim of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of the Radio-Guided Occult Lesion Localization (ROLL) technique of biopsy-proven metastatic LN in nodal staging after NACT among node-positive BC patients. (2) Methods: Patients with invasive BC and biopsy-proven axillary metastases receiving NACT were enrolled. A clip marker was placed on the sampled LN (clipped lymph node, CLN) before NACT. Before surgery, the ROLL procedure (radioactive tracer injection into CLN under ultrasound guidance) was performed, and the CLN was surgically resected. The correspondence between the CLNs and SLNs was evaluated. The pathologic findings of the CLNs and SLN(s) were compared with remaining axillary nodes at ALND to determine false negative rates (FNRs). (3) Results: Seventy-two patients were analyzed. Surgery successfully identified the CLN in 70/72 procedures (97.2%). For 60/72 patients who underwent ALND, the FNRs dropped from 19.35% for SLNB to 3.13% for CLN biopsy. (4) Conclusions: The ROLL procedure got CLNs is accurate in axillary nodal staging after NACT in node-positive BC patients at diagnosis.
