Abstract

Background: Tuberculosis (TB) is still a severe problem in underdeveloped and developing countries. Diagnostic tests are unavailable in every health institution, and TB culture can take up to 45 days. Therefore, there is a need for cheaper, faster, and easily accessible diagnostic methods that can guide the diagnosis. This study aimed to determine whether red blood cell distribution width (RDW), C-reactive protein (CRP)-lymphocyte ratio (CLR), platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and lymphocyte-monocyte ratio (LMR) can be used as biomarkers in the diagnosis of pulmonary TB in patients with no comorbidities. Material and Methods: Files of microbiologically confirmed 122 patients with pulmonary TB and 153 patients in whom pulmonary TB was excluded were retrospectively reviewed. Out of them, patients with comorbidities were excluded from the study. Eighty-one patients with TB and 100 controls were included in the study. Results: The lymphocyte, eosinophil, and LMR levels remained significantly lower in the TB group, while neutrophil, monocyte, RDW, platelet, and PLR levels were higher in the same group. Conclusion: In those patients suspicious of pulmonary TB, higher levels of RDW, PLR, and CLR, whereas lower levels of eosinophil, PDW, and LMR may predict the diagnosis of pulmonary TB in previously healthy individuals.
