Background and Purpose-The current criteria of metabolic syndrome (MetS) are not based on evidence derived from prospective studies on cardiovascular disease (CVD).Methods-In a 14-year follow-up study of 2452 community-dwelling Japanese individuals aged >= 40 years, we examined which of the MetS criteria are most predictive for the development of CVD. During the follow-up, 246 first-ever CVD events occurred.Results-An optimal cutoff point of waist circumference for predicting CVD was 90 cm in men (age-adjusted hazard ratio= 1.81; 95% CI, 1.19 to 2.74; P=0.005) and 80 cm in women (age-adjusted hazard ratio= 1.46; 95% CI, 0.99 to 2.16; P = 0.05). A comparison of MetS criteria showed that the modified Japanese criteria using this cutoff point instead of the original definition were the strongest predictor of CVD events in both sexes (men: age-adjusted hazard ratio=2.58; 95% CI, 1.65 to 4.02; P
