7. Completed and protected projects with currently available data
To date, the MCPS research teams in Oxford and UNAM have focused on studying the relevance to cause-specific mortality of major disease risk factors, including diabetes,1-5 adiposity,6-10 blood pressure,11,12 smoking,13 low levels of education14 and alcohol consumption.15 We have also published several cross-sectional analyses related to these16-19 and other cardiometabolic risk factors including lipids and other biomarkers.20-21 In addition, current analyses (anticipated for publication in 2025/6) will report the relevance of physical activity and renal function to cause-specific mortality, as well as the combined relevance of these major disease risk factors to cardiovascular risk. If you are interested in studying any of these risk factors we recommend that you review these published papers (or contact us) to see what has already been, or soon will be, published from the study.
In addition, several areas of research are currently being explored by PhD students or researchers at Oxford and UNAM, and are therefore considered protected until the completion of the project. These include, but are not limited to, studying the genetics of diabetes, kidney function, adiposity, blood pressure, cognitive function and blood lipids, Mendelian randomisation studies of these phenotypes, and use of polygenic risk scores for predicting cardio-metabolic mortality. We are particularly focused on studying genetic admixture and/or local ancestry in the context of cardiometabolic traits. Applications for projects that overlap significantly with protected projects may therefore require further discussion before approval.
External projects (open access and collaborations) that have been approved and have an access agreement in place are listed below (last updated 24 April 2026).
