The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the diagnostic performance of Peguero\u2013Lo Presti, Cornell and Sokolow--Lyon voltage criteria for LVH as defined by CMR in an all-comers European population.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>A total of 240 consecutive patients referred for CMR who had a concomitant electrocardiogram for review were evaluated. LVH group patients were defined according to the reference values for sex and age of left ventricular mass index (LVMi). A control group, adjusted by sex, was randomly selected from a population without LVH. We applied the ECG voltage criteria to both groups and evaluated their diagnostic accuracy. Diagnostic sensitivity and specificity were compared.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>Two hundred and forty patients (mean age 63 years; 65% men) were divided into two groups (LVH <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">n<\/jats:italic>\u200a=\u200a149; control <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">n<\/jats:italic>\u200a=\u200a91). The main causes of LVH were hypertension (24.8%) and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (21.5%). The remaining patients of this group had a diagnosis of dilated cardiomyopathy (14.8%), valvular heart disease (7.4%) and infiltrative cardiomyopathy (2.0%). Overall, the sensitivity for LVH diagnosis of the Peguero\u2013Lo Presti criteria outperformed both the Cornell (47 vs. 29%, <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\u200a&lt;\u200a0.001) and Sokolow--Lyon voltage criteria (vs. 25%, <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\u200a&lt;\u200a0.001). The specificities of all the criteria were above 94%, without significant differences between them.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>In an all-comers European population with LVH defined by CMR, the criteria of Peguero\u2013Lo Presti showed increased sensitivity for this diagnosis, when compared with the Sokolow--Lyon and Cornell voltage criteria.
