  2. Vitamin K - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitamin_K

    Vitamin K is a family of structurally similar, fat-soluble vitamers found in foods and marketed as dietary supplements. [1] The human body requires vitamin K for post-synthesis modification of certain proteins that are required for blood coagulation ("K" from Danish koagulation, for "coagulation") or for controlling binding of calcium in bones and other tissues. [2]

  3. Vitamin deficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitamin_deficiency

    Newborn infants are a special case. Plasma vitamin K is low at birth, even if the mother is supplemented during pregnancy, because the vitamin is not transported across the placenta. Vitamin K deficiency bleeding (VKDB) due to physiologically low vitamin K plasma concentrations is a serious risk for premature and term newborn and young infants.

  4. Vitamin K deficiency bleeding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitamin_K_deficiency_bleeding

    This combination can lead to vitamin K deficiency and later onset bleeding. Vitamin K deficiency leads to the risk of blood coagulation problems due to impaired production of clotting factors II, VII, IX, X, protein C and protein S by the liver. More rarely VKDB can be caused by maternal medicines causing vitamin K deficiency in the newborn. [2]

  5. Vitamin K reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitamin_K_reaction

    VKAs diminish vitamin K levels in the body and inhibit the synthesis of vitamin K dependent clotting factors. [27] Thus, by inhibiting vitamin K, a key element by which the body produces clots, the risk of prolonged bleeding increases. [28] Traditionally, vitamin K has been used as a reversal agent for VKAs.

  6. Vitamin K deficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitamin_K_deficiency

    Vitamin K 1-deficiency may occur by disturbed intestinal uptake (such as would occur in a bile duct obstruction), by therapeutic or accidental intake of a vitamin K 1-antagonist such as warfarin, or, very rarely, by nutritional vitamin K 1 deficiency. As a result, Gla-residues are inadequately formed and the Gla-proteins are insufficiently active.

  7. Phytomenadione - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phytomenadione

    Phytomenadione, also known as vitamin K 1 or phylloquinone, is a vitamin found in food and used as a dietary supplement. [4] [5] It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines. [6] It is used to treat certain bleeding disorders, [5] including warfarin overdose, vitamin K deficiency, and obstructive jaundice. [5]

  8. Protein–energy malnutrition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein–energy_malnutrition

    Protein–energy undernutrition affects children the most because they have less protein intake. [further explanation needed] The few rare cases found in the developed world are almost entirely found in small children as a result of fad diets, or ignorance of the nutritional needs of children, particularly in cases of milk allergy. [6]

  9. Menadiol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Menadiol

    Menadiol is an organic compound with the formula C 6 H 4 (COH) 2 (CH)(CH 3). It is formally a derivative of p-hydroquinone. The name vitamin K 4 can refer to: specifically this compound, [1] [2] its various esters, e.g. menadiol diacetate (acetomenaphthone), [3] [4] menadiol dibutyrate, [4] menadiol dimalonate, or [2] its various salts, like
