Key result
The Cornell Product criterion had the greatest area under the ROC curve for identifying echocardiography-defined left ventricular hypertrophy compared to Sokolow-Lyon and Cornell criteria.
Why the study?
It remained unclear which electrocardiographic criterion performs better in diagnosing left ventricular hypertrophy.
Does the Cornell Product ECG criterion provide better diagnostic accuracy for left ventricular hypertrophy than Sokolow-Lyon and Cornell criteria in elderly Chinese patients?

Does the Cornell Product ECG criterion provide better diagnostic accuracy for left ventricular hypertrophy than Sokolow-Lyon and Cornell criteria in elderly Chinese patients?
The Cornell Product ECG criterion is superior to the Sokolow-Lyon and Cornell criteria for diagnosing left ventricular hypertrophy in elderly Chinese individuals.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
May support Cornell Product for LVH detection in elderly Chinese; leaves open prospective validation and outcome impact.
Zhang et al. (2019) conducted a cross-sectional in Left ventricular hypertrophy (n=1,789). Cornell Product (CP) criterion vs. Sokolow-Lyon and Cornell criteria was evaluated on Consistency with echocardiography-defined LVH (area under the ROC curve). The Cornell Product criterion had the greatest area under the ROC curve for identifying echocardiography-defined left ventricular hypertrophy compared to Sokolow-Lyon and Cornell criteria.
