Abstract

Background: Most lung cancer cases are diagnosed at an advanced stage. Bronchial washing fluid contains many inflammatory cytokines that play a role in the malignant process. The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between TGF-β, CRP and LDH in bronchial washing fluid with diagnosis of non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). Method: This research is an observational analytical study with a cross sectional design at Prof. Ngoerah Hospital, Denpasar (May 2023-August 2023). Descriptive analysis describes subject characteristics and research variables. Normality test with Shapiro Wilk. Bivariate analysis uses the unpaired T test with a normal distribution and the Mann-Whitney test with a non-normal distribution, data in the form of mean and standard deviation. Multivariate analysis with logistic regression. Results: The total research samples were 37 samples. 23 samples were detected as non-small cell lung carcinoma; 14 samples as non-NSCLC. The research results showed a significant relationship between TGF-β levels and diagnosis of non-small cell lung carcinoma (346.11 ± 40.21 pg/mL) vs (290.01 ± 66.22) (p < 0.05) and a significant relationship between LDH levels and diagnosis of non-small cell lung carcinoma (140.38 ± 98.11 U/L) vs (56.62 ± 22.68) (p < 0.05). There was no significant relationship between TGF-β, LDH, CRP and histopathology, bronchoscopy lesions and cancer stage of non-small cell lung carcinoma. Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between TGF-β and LDH levels and diagnosis of non-small cell lung carcinoma. TGF-β and LDH levels are increased in non-small cell lung carcinoma.
