Vitamin K Bone Health Meta-AnalysisGenetic variants in VKORC1 may influence bone mineral density (BMD) and osteoporosis risk.1Vesa ŞC (2026)Association Between <i>VKORC1</i> Gene Polymorphisms and Osteopenia and Osteoporosis: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Vitamin K Bone Health Meta-AnalysisThe overall effect of VKORC1 risk alleles on osteopenia/osteoporosis was significant with a p = 0.041 (fixed effects OR = 1.16, 95% CI = 1.01-1.35).1Vesa ŞC (2026)Association Between <i>VKORC1</i> Gene Polymorphisms and Osteopenia and Osteoporosis: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Vitamin K Bone Health Meta-AnalysisThe current body of evidence requires further studies to elucidate whether VKORC1 polymorphisms have a clinically meaningful role in bone health.1Vesa ŞC (2026)Association Between <i>VKORC1</i> Gene Polymorphisms and Osteopenia and Osteoporosis: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Vitamin K Bone Health Meta-AnalysisBackground and Objectives: The vitamin K epoxide reductase complex subunit 1 (VKORC1) plays a central role in the vitamin K cycle, which is essential for γ-carboxylation of multiple bone-related proteins.1Vesa ŞC (2026)Association Between <i>VKORC1</i> Gene Polymorphisms and Osteopenia and Osteoporosis: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Vitamin K Bone Health Meta-AnalysisAccumulating evidence links this condition to impaired glucose [,,,,] and calcium metabolism [,], highlighting the need to better define VK&#8217;s roles within the endocrine regulatory pathways.3Matuszewski Wojciech (2026)Vitamin K as an Endocrine Modulator: Mechanistic Links to Glucose Metabolism and Beyond
Vitamin K Bone Health Meta-AnalysisIn this narrative review, we integrate the current evidence on VK within the context of the endocrine system, with primary emphasis on glucose metabolism.3Matuszewski Wojciech (2026)Vitamin K as an Endocrine Modulator: Mechanistic Links to Glucose Metabolism and Beyond
Vitamin K Bone Health Meta-AnalysisInitial broad searches were conducted to identify endocrine pathways potentially linked to VK, and search terms were subsequently refined based on the availability and relevance of mechanistic and clinical evidence.3Matuszewski Wojciech (2026)Vitamin K as an Endocrine Modulator: Mechanistic Links to Glucose Metabolism and Beyond
