Multivariate analysis revealed: in ycN0 patients, only breast pathological complete response(bpCR) predicted ypN0 (OR: 0.151, 95% CI: 0.055\u20130.419); in ycN1 patients, both bpCR (OR: 0.038, 95% CI: 0.015\u20130.098) and MRI radiological complete response of lymph nodes (MRI\u2010rCR(LN))(OR: 0.36, 95% CI: 0.156\u20130.832) were significant predictors. Univariate analysis identified ten ypN0\u2010associated factors including bpCR.
