Lymph node metastasis (LNM) significantly affects the prognosis and clinical management of breast cancer (BC) patients. This systematic review and meta-analysis aim to identify microRNAs (miRNAs) associated with LNM in BC and evaluate their potential diagnostic and prognostic value. Following PRISMA guidelines, a comprehensive literature search was conducted in PubMed, Web of Science, and SCOPUS databases, to assess the role of miRNAs in LNM BC. The Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies (QUADAS-2) tool was used to evaluate the quality of included studies. A total of 84 miRNAs were identified as differentially expressed in BC patients with LNM. Of these, a meta-analysis was performed in two microRNAs that were present in at least 3 different articles with a coherent expression direction: miR-155 and miR-34a. The meta-analysis returned a pooled a Log2 fold change of 1.50 for miR-155 (upregulated) and -0.53 for miR-34a (downregulated) with no evidence of publication bias, and a low risk of bias and applicability concerns. To conclude, this study names miR-155 and miR-34a as potential diagnostic biomarkers for LNM in BC, although further experimental validation is necessary to confirm these findings and develop non-invasive diagnostic tools for clinical use.
