Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
It has a predictive value of poor prognoses and clinical outcomes in CKD patients such as overall mortality and even poor arteriovenous graft maturation .
Vitamin K is essential for the activation of matrix Gla protein (MGP), a powerful inhibitor of tissue calcification, functional vitamin K deficiency may contribute to high vascular calcification (VC) burden in haemodialysis patients; this is process in which mineral is pathologically deposited in blood vessels, mainly in large elastic and muscular arteries such as the aorta and the coronary, carotid, and peripheral arteries.
it is Prospective, Randomized,Placebo Controlled Study
