To explore whether differences in vitamin K nutrition might, at least in part, underlie differences in fracture incidence between Asian and European populations, the vitamin K status of older individuals in Shenyang, China (eighty-six men, ninety-two women) and in Cambridge, UK (sixty-seven men, sixty-seven women) was compared. Dietary information was collected by food questionnaire in Shenyang and food diary in Cambridge and used to estimate the intake and sources of phylloquinone. Fasting…

Effect of apolipoprotein E genotype on vitamin K status in healthy older adults from China and the UK
TLDR
It is demonstrated that a superior vitamin K status is associated with the apoE4 genotype in healthy older individuals from China and the UK.

TLDR
The data indicate that large-scale studies to examine relationships between vitamin K1 (and green vegetable) intakes and bone growth and development in adolescents are warranted.
Phylloquinone (vitamin K1) intakes and serum undercarboxylated osteocalcin levels in Irish postmenopausal women
TLDR
The habitual intakes of phylloquinone in a high proportion of Irish postmenopausal women may not be adequate, and comparisons with both UK recommendations and US A equate Intakes for phyllaquinone are compared.
Concepts and Controversies in Evaluating Vitamin K Status in Population-Based Studies
TLDR
There is growing interest in menaquinone (vitamin K2) intakes for which the food composition databases need to be expanded and there is no single biomarker that is considered a gold-standard measure of vitamin K status.
The association between dietary vitamin K intake and serum undercarboxylated osteocalcin is modulated by vitamin K epoxide reductase genotype
TLDR
The results show that the inverse association between dietary vitamin K intake and serum ucOC depends on a functionally relevant allelic variant of the VKORC1 gene.
Plasma phylloquinone (vitamin K1) concentration and its relationship to intake in British adults aged 19–64 years
TLDR
Plasma phylloquinone concentration was significantly associated with plasma concentrations of total and LDL-cholesterol, α- and γ-tocopherols, retinyl palmitate, β-carotene, lycopene and lutein plus zeaxanthin in men and women.
Circulating phylloquinone concentrations of adults in the United States differ according to race and ethnicity.
TLDR
Findings suggest circulating K1 differs by race and ethnicity in U.S. adults, especially among those of Chinese American descent, which merits consideration in the design and interpretation of future population-based and clinical studies of vitamin K and related diseases.
Vitamin K status in the elderly

    Current opinion in clinical nutrition and metabolic care
  • 2007
TLDR
Evidence is emerging to support recommendations to increase intakes of vitamin K among the elderly to reduce bone loss and fracture risk, and one promising area of research is the interrelationship between estrogen and vitamin K.
Serum percentage undercarboxylated osteocalcin, a sensitive measure of vitamin K status, and its relationship to bone health indices in Danish girls.
TLDR
There is a need for well-designed, randomized phylloquinone supplementation trials in children and adolescents to confirm epidemiological findings of an association between vitamin K status and bone health.

Dietary and nondietary determinants of vitamin K biochemical measures in men and women.
TLDR
Findings support the use of a FFQ for a relative assessment of vitamin K status in population-based studies, despite limitations in theUse of the FFQ to predict plasma phylloquinone, evident in an observed plateau effect and required nondietary adjustment factors.
Intake and sources of phylloquinone (vitamin K1): variation with socio-demographic and lifestyle factors in a national sample of British elderly people.
Intake and sources of phylloquinone (vitamin K1) were examined according to socio-demographic and lifestyle factors in free-living British people aged 65 years and over, from the 1994-5 National Diet…
Vitamin D status and parathyroid hormone concentrations in Chinese women and men from north-east of the People’s Republic of China
TLDR
Vitamin D status was poor in this population in early spring, especially in men, and there was no clear evidence to show that the secretion of PTH and the conversion of 1, 25( OH)2D were affected by the low 25(OH)D concentration.
Plasma phylloquinone (vitamin K1) concentration and its relationship to intake in a national sample of British elderly people
TLDR
Plasma phylloquinone concentrations did not generally differ between men and women, although values in free-living people were significantly lower during autumn and winter (October to March), and the possibility of concurrent low fat-soluble vitamin status in elderly populations may be a cause for concern.
Vitamin K intake and hip fractures in women: a prospective study.
TLDR
The hypothesis that high intakes of vitamin K are associated with a lower risk of hip fracture in women is investigated and the suggestion for a reassessment of the vitamin K requirements that are based on bone health and blood coagulation is supported.
Assessment of dietary phylloquinone intake and vitamin K status in postmenopausal women.
TLDR
A weighed record has the potential to be a reliable method for estimating dietary intakes of vitamin K which relate to plasma phylloquinone levels used as an indicator of vitaminK status in postmenopausal Caucasian women.
Vitamin K intake and osteocalcin levels in women with and without aortic atherosclerosis: a population-based study.
Vitamin K intake and bone mineral density in women and men.
TLDR
Low dietary vitamin K intake was associated with low BMD in women, consistent with previous reports that low dietaryitamin K intake is associated with an increased risk of hip fracture.
Nutritional Intake of Vitamins K1 (Phylloquinone) and K2 (Menaquinone) in The Netherlands
TLDR
It is concluded that K1 is the major form of nutritional vitamin K, that total vitamin K intake is higher than in other populations described and that the correlation betweenitamin K intake and serum concentration is poor.
Dietary survey in a Chinese population.
TLDR
The study suggests that integrated nutrition intervention is needed to prevent insufficient intake of some nutrients and control dietary risk factors related to chronic diseases.
