Seeing that tr.id is a primary key, I think you might be a lot better
off if you avoided the inner join and group by.  I think what you really
want here is something like

SELECT tr.id, tr.sid
            FROM
            test_registration tr
            WHERE
            tr.test_administration_id='32a22b12-aa21-11df-a606-96551e8f4e4c'::uuid
            AND EXISTS(SELECT 1 FROM test_registration_result r
                       WHERE tr.id = r.test_registration_id)
