Resum
Background: Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounting for the majority of cases. The stage of detection significantly influences survival rates with early-stage diagnosis offering the best prognosis. This study investigates the prognostic impact of the omega-6/omega-3 ratio and tumor infiltration by CD8+ lymphocytes and CD68+ macrophages on overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) in NSCLC patients undergoing pulmonary resection. Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of 53 patients with early-stage NSCLC who underwent pulmonary resection between September 2017 and January 2020. The omega-6/omega-3 ratio was quantified using gas chromatography and spectrometry. Tumor infiltration by CD8 and CD68 was assessed through immunohistochemistry. Survival outcomes were evaluated using Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression analyses. Results: An increased omega-6/omega-3 ratio and higher CD68+ macrophage infiltration were associated with a trend towards worse OS and DFS in NSCLC patients, though these results did not reach statistical significance. CD8+ T-cell infiltration was associated with improved survival outcomes, confirming its role as a favorable prognostic marker. Comparative analysis with existing datasets revealed similar demographic and clinical characteristics, reinforcing the generalizability of our findings. Conclusions: The omega-6/omega-3 ratio and CD68+ macrophage infiltration serve as important factors potentially influencing prognosis in NSCLC patients undergoing pulmonary resection. These findings highlight the need for further research to refine the prognostic utility of these biomarkers and to explore therapeutic strategies targeting inflammation and immune cell infiltration.
