In this study, we aimed to investigate the value of first trimester inflammatory markers (Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR), Platelet-to-Lymphocyte Ratio (PLR), Monocyte-to-Lymphocyte Ratio (MLR), Neutrophil-to-Monocyte Ratio (NMR)), HDL-based metabolic inflammation indicators (Lymphocyte-to-High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Ratio (LHR), Monocyte-to-High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Ratio (MHR), Granulocyte-to-High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Ratio (GHR)) and metabolic indices (Atherogenic Index of Plasma (AIP), Triglyceride\u2013Glucose Index (TyG)) in predicting GDM.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Materials and methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Between December 2024 and October 2025, 250 pregnant women were included in this prospective diagnostic accuracy study conducted at Band\u0131rma Onyedi Eyl\u00fcl University Hospital. First trimester (10\u201314\u202fweeks) complete blood count, fasting glucose and lipid profile were recorded. NLR, PLR, MLR, NMR, LHR, MHR, GHR, AIP and TyG indices were calculated. GDM was diagnosed with 75\u202fg Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) at 24\u201328\u202fweeks according to International Association of the Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Groups (IADPSG) criteria. Diagnostic performance was evaluated by ROC analysis and significance level was taken as\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u202f&amp;lt;\u202f0.05.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      The prevalence of GDM was 18.0% (\n                      <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u202f=\u202f45).
