Objective Measurement error in predictor variables may threaten the validity of clinical
prediction models. We sought to evaluate the possible extent of the problem. A secondary …

Background Axillary staging (pN) is considered one of the most important prognostic factors
in breast cancer patients. However, the Z0011 study data drastically reduced the number of …

Simple Summary Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second most common cancer and one of the
highestcauses of cancer deaths among men. The presence of lymph node metastases …

We aimed to analyze the risk factors and construct a new nomogram to predict non-sentinel
lymph node (NSLN) metastasis for cT1-2 breast cancer patients with positivity after sentinel …

The current diagnostic technologies for assessing the axillary lymph node metastasis
(ALNM) status accurately in breast cancer (BC) remain unsatisfactory. Here, we developed a …

The aim of the present study was to assess the sensitivity, specificity and practicality of using
a one‑step nucleic acid amplification (OSNA) assay during breast cancer staging surgery to …

Background A prognostic model based on the results of molecular analysis of sentinel lymph
nodes (SLN) is needed to replace the information that staging the entire axilla provided. The …

OSNA is a molecular assay for the detection of sentinel node metastasis. TTL emerged as a
concept that seems to accurately predict the status of the NSN. Authors tried to confirm this …

Since 2007, one-step nucleic acid amplification (OSNA) has been used as a diagnostic
system for sentinel lymph node (SLN) examination in patients with breast cancer. This study …

Background: Accurate histopathological evaluation of lymph nodes (LNs) is essential for
reliable staging in prostate cancer. In routine practice, conventional techniques only …
