    The study included 53,393 women undergoing assisted reproductive technology between January 2017 and March 2023.

  • 2

    A significant inverse association was found between maternal TyG-BMI and cumulative live birth rates.

  • 3

    Women in the highest TyG-BMI tertile had a lower cumulative live birth rate compared to those in the lowest tertile.

  • 4

    Higher TyG-BMI was linked to increased risks of miscarriage, fetal loss, preterm birth, and macrosomia.

  • 5

    TyG-BMI may serve as a cost-effective marker for assessing insulin resistance and reproductive outcomes in ART.
