    Abstract:
    To evaluate the value of modified Cornell electrocardiographic criteria in the assessment of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) for patients with essential hypertension. A total of 381 patients with essential hypertension diagnosed in our hospital were selected. Using the left ventricle (LV) geometric patterns classified by the American Society of Echocardiography (ASE), we examined the distribution of the modified Cornell criteria of Ravl + SD (the deepest S wave in 12-lead ECG) in different geometric patterns and analyzed the correlation of modified Cornell criteria with changes in the LV geometric patterns using multiple linear regression analysis. The distribution of modified Cornell criteria, Sokolow-Lyon criteria (RV5/V6 + SV1), and Cornell criteria (Ravl + SV3) in gender-specific hypertensive geometric patterns were significantly different (P ≤ .01 for all). The voltage of Ravl + SD in male patients showed an increase trend in the normal geometry (NG), concentric remodeling (CR), concentric hypertrophy (CH), and eccentric hypertrophy (EH) groups, and this increase trend was significantly in the unadjusted model and the adjusted model. The voltages of Ravl + SV3 and RV5/V6 + SV1 of male patients in CR, CH and RH groups showed a gradual increase trend, but the increase trend in CR group has no statistical significance compared to that in NG group (P ≥ .05). The voltages of Ravl + SD , RV5/V6 + SV1, and Ravl + SV3 in female patients in CR, CH and EH groups showed a trend of increase after decrease in the adjusted model. In conclusion, the modified Cornell criteria could dynamically reflect left ventricular hypertensive geometry of male patients.
