Fasting glucose and plasma lipid profiles including TG, TC, HDL-c, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c) were measured in the first trimester. A binary logistic regression analysis was performed to determine the odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of GDM and LGA according to tertiles of those indices, respectively. Receiver-operating characteristic curve (ROC) and areas under the curve (AUC) were employed to evaluate the ability of those indices to predict the risk of GDM and LGA infants, and differences in the AUC values between them were compared.Results: Women with the top tertile of TG/HDL-c or TyG other than TC/HDL-c had a significantly higher risk of GDM (ORTG/HDL-c=2.388, 95% CI 1.026– 5.467; ORTyG=3.535, 95% CI 1.483– 8.426, respectively) and LGA infant delivery (ORTG/HDL-c=3.742, 95% CI 1.114– 12.569; ORTyG=3.011, 95% CI 1.012– 8.962, respectively) than women with the lowest tertile of TG/HDL-c or TyG after adjusting for confounders. The AUC of TG/HDL-c and TyG to detect GDM was 0.664 (95% CI 0.595– 0.733) and 0.686 (95% CI 0.615– 0.756), respectively, and that to detect LGA was 0.646 (95% CI 0.559– 0.734) and 0.643 (95% CI 0.552– 0.735), respectively (all P < 0.01). There were no statistical differences between TG/HDL-c and TyG in the ability of predicting the risk of GDM or LGA infants.Conclusion: Maternal first-trimester TG/HDL-c and TyG are both good indicators in predicting the risk of later GDM and LGA newborn, and it may be useful to evaluate them in early pregnancy.Keywords: gestational diabetes, triglyceride/HDL-c ratio, triglyceride glucose index, large for gestational age infant
