LGI, APRI, and FIB\u20104 scores were calculated using first\u2010 and second\u2010trimester laboratory data. Statistical analyses, including logistic regression and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis, were performed to assess their predictive value for GDM and neonatal outcomes.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>LGI was significantly lower in the GDM group during both the first and second trimesters (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> &lt; 0.001).

However, FIB\u20104 and APRI indices were not significant predictors of GDM.

While APRI scores in the first trimester correlated with adverse neonatal outcomes, FIB\u20104, and APRI indices were not effective predictors of GDM. Further prospective studies with larger cohorts are needed to confirm these findings and explore the clinical applicability of LGI in early GDM
