Can the triglyceride-glucose index predict insulin resistance in LGA newborns?

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundThe aim of this study is to investigate the TyG index and TG/HDL-C ratio and their relationships with insulin resistance in LGA infants.
methodsA prospective controlled study was conducted including 65 LGA and gestational age, gender-matched appropriate for gestational age (AGA) neonates. Serum TG, total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C), insulin and glucose levels were measured within two hours after birth, TyG index and HOMA-IR values were calculated.
resultsTyG index and TG/HDL- C ratio were higher in LGA neonates compared to AGA ones (p = 0.03; p = 0.00, respectively). Compared with AGA newborns, LGA newborns had higher levels of insulin and HOMA-IR (p = 0.00; p = 0.00, respectively). TyG index and TG/HDL-C ratio showed moderate correlation with HOMA-IR (r = 0.59 R
