    Background: The association of immunological checkpoint marker programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) and the prognosis of various malignancies has been widely observed, recently. However, the association between PD-L1 expression and breast cancer patients’ survival remains controversial. Thus, we performed this study to assess the clinical value of PD-L1. Methods: We searched the electronic databases for eligible literature.

Moreover, the odds ratio (OR) was also analyzed to evaluate the associ.. View More»
