N2 - Objective: Patients on dialysis treatment have poor functional vitamin K status, and this may increase the risk of vascular calcification. Vitamin K supplementation may therefore be relevant in patients on dialysis, but the procoagulant effects have not been studied. We evaluated effects of menaquinone-7 (MK-7) supplementation on biomarkers of coagulation in patients on dialysis. Methods: Double-blinded, placebo-controlled study in 123 patients on dialysis randomized to 52 weeks of vitamin K (MK-7, 360 μg/daily, n = 61) or placebo (n = 62). Measurements at baseline and after 52 weeks of intervention included thrombin generation (endogenous thrombin potential, peak thrombin concentration, time to peak, and lag time); clot activities of vitamin K-dependent coagulation factors (F) II, VII, IX, and X; prothrombin fragment 1 + 2 (F1+2); and proteins induced by vitamin K absence II (PIVKA-II). Between-group differences (vitamin K vs. placebo) at 52 weeks were determined with an analysis of covariance. Within-group changes in vitamin K and placebo groups were analyzed with a paired t-test. Vascular adverse events and serious adverse events were registered based on hospital records, laboratory data, and participant interviews and compared between groups using Fisher's exact test or Pearson's Chi-Squared test. Results: A between-group difference at 52 weeks was observed for PIVKA-II (P <.001). PIVKA-II decreased significantly from baseline to 52 weeks in the vitamin K group, but not in the placebo group. We observed no between-group differences or within-group changes for biomarkers of coagulation, except for FVII clot activity which was reduced in the placebo group (P =.04), and no between-group differences in adverse events and serious adverse events. Conclusion: One year of vitamin K supplementation in patients on dialysis has no detectable effects on biomarkers of coagulation activation, clot activities of vitamin K-dependent coagulation factors, and vascular events or death, indicating no procoagulant effects of this treatment.
