Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Percentage of metastases in each lymph node in the standard NAC cohort patients who met the primary analysis criteria.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
-The index of lymph node dissection in each lymph node in the standard NAC cohort patients who met the primary analysis criteria (percentage of lymph node metastasis x 3-year recurrence free survival, or percentage of lymph node metastasis x 5-year recurrence free survival). -1,2,3,4,5-year recurrence-free survival rate and overall survival rate, recurrence-free survival , overall survival, disease-specific survival, disease-specific survival rate, postoperative complications, site of recurrence. -Percentage of metastases in each lymph node, and the index of lymph node dissection (percentage of lymph node metastasis x 3-year recurrence free survival, or percentage of lymph node metastasis x 5-year recurrence free survival) in each lymph node about non-standard cohort patients or in standard NAC cohort patients who did not meet the primary analysis criteria.
