In addition to JohnL's comments, we need to remember that the determination of who was node negative and who was node positive at that time was not performed with the precision that it is today (no one was checked for micro or nano mets), and it is very possible there are a fair number of patients who would be classified node positive today that are included in the stats for node negative in this poster.

These stats -like most- only confirm that research is work in progress... and that an informed patient has the best chance for long term survival.

It doesn't seem like they would waste their time, money and effort on such old data. But it is nice to see that we are proving them wrong. Sally
