Key result
Cornell product was the best electrocardiographic predictor of left ventricular mass index in obese and overweight Chinese hypertensive patients, with correlation coefficients up to 0.597.
Cross-Sectional (n=546)
The Cornell product is the most accurate electrocardiographic parameter for predicting echocardiographic left ventricular mass index in obese and overweight Chinese hypertensive patients.

LVM/H²·⁷ indexing may reduce BMI confounding in hypertensives; leaves open ECG utility for LVH detection in Chinese patients.
Xie et al. (2010) conducted a cross-sectional in Hypertension (n=546). Electrocardiographic variables (e.g., Cornell product) was evaluated on Correlation between echocardiographic left ventricular mass index and electrocardiographic variables. Cornell product was the best electrocardiographic predictor of left ventricular mass index in obese and overweight Chinese hypertensive patients, with correlation coefficients up to 0.597.
