Prognostic and Predictive Effects of Positive Lymph Node Number or Ratio in NSCLC

Abstract In the eighth TNM staging system proposal for NSCLC recently, classification of N stage is based on anatomical position of positive lymph nodes. We aimed to expand the sample volume to identify the value of positive lymph node number or ratio in prognosis and predictive effect for postopera...
