To find the equation of the parabola using quadratic regression, we need to assume the general quadratic form:

\[
y = ax^2 + bx + c
\]

Given the points \((-1, -23)\), \((-3, -67)\), and \((2, 13)\), we substitute these points into the equation to form a system of equations:

### Step 1: Set up the equations
1. Substituting \((-1, -23)\):
   \[
   a(-1)^2 + b(-1) + c = -23
   \]
   \[
   a - b + c = -23 \quad \text{(Equation 1)}
   \]

2. Substituting \((-3, -67)\):
   \[
   a(-3)^2 + b(-3) + c = -67
   \]
   \[
   9a - 3b + c = -67 \quad \text{(Equation 2)}
   \]

3. Substituting \((2, 13)\):
   \[
   a(2)^2 + b(2) + c = 13
   \]
   \[
   4a + 2b + c = 13 \quad \text{(Equation 3)}
   \]

### Step 2: Solve the system of equations
The system of equations is:
\[
\begin{cases}
a - b + c = -23 \\
9a - 3b + c = -67 \\
4a + 2b + c = 13
\end{cases}
\]

We can solve this system using substitution or elimination. Let’s proceed with elimination:

1. Subtract Equation 1 from Equation 2:
   \[
   (9a - 3b + c) - (a - b + c) = -67 - (-23)
   \]
   \[
   8a - 2b = -44
   \]
   \[
   4a - b = -22 \quad \text{(Equation 4)}
   \]

2. Subtract Equation 1 from Equation 3:
   \[
   (4a + 2b + c) - (a - b + c) = 13 - (-23)
   \]
   \[
   3a + 3b = 36
   \]
   \[
   a + b = 12 \quad \text{(Equation 5)}
   \]

### Step 3: Solve Equations 4 and 5
The new system is:
\[
\begin{cases}
4a - b = -22 \\
a + b = 12
\end{cases}
\]

Add these two equations to eliminate \(b\):
\[
(4a - b) + (a + b) = -22 + 12
\]
\[
5a = -10
\]
\[
a = -2
\]

### Step 4: Substitute \(a = -2\) into Equation 5
\[
-2 + b = 12
\]
\[
b = 14
\]

### Step 5: Substitute \(a = -2\) and \(b = 14\) into Equation 1
\[
-2 - 14 + c = -23
\]
\[
-16 + c = -23
\]
\[
c = -7
\]

### Step 6: Form the final equation
\[
y = -2x^2 + 14x - 7
\]

So, the equation of the parabola is:
\[
\boxed{y = -2x^2 + 14x - 7}
\]
