Genotyping, sequencing and analysis of 140,000 adults from the Mexico City Prospective Study
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract The Mexico City Prospective Study (MCPS) is a prospective cohort of over 150,000 adults recruited two decades ago from the urban districts of Coyoacán and Iztapalapa in Mexico City. We generated genotype and exome sequencing data for all individuals, and whole genome sequencing for 10,000 selected individuals. We uncovered high levels of relatedness and substantial heterogeneity in ancestry composition across individuals. Most sequenced individuals had admixed Native American, European and African ancestry, with extensive admixture from indigenous groups in Central, Southern and South Eastern Mexico. Native Mexican segments of the genome had lower levels of coding variation, but an excess of homozygous loss of function variants compared with segments of African and European origin. We estimated population specific allele frequencies at 142 million genomic variants, with an effective sample size of 91,856 for Native Mexico at exome variants, all available via a public browser. Using whole genome sequencing, we developed an imputation reference panel which outperforms existing panels at common variants in individuals with high proportions of Central, South and South Eastern Native Mexican ancestry. Our work illustrates the value of genetic studies in populations with diverse ancestry and provides foundational imputation and allele frequency resources for future genetic studies in Mexico and in the United States where the Hispanic/Latino population is predominantly of Mexican descent.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
