Vascular calcification as a marker of increased
cardiovascular risk: a meta-analysis
Alexopoulos et al. Nature Reviews Cardiology 2009
Coronary artery calcium is a better predictor of cardiovascular events than
the Framingham risk score and can help to reclassify asymptomatic
individuals into high‐risk or low‐risk categories

Warfarin induced artery calcification is promoted by increases in serum calcium or phosphate. Strong upregulation of MGP at sites of calcification, though in the inactive uncarboxylated form
Warfarin causes rapid calcification of the elastic lamellae in rat arteries

VitaK-CAC Study
- Design -
randomised (1:1) follow-up = 2.0 years
Standard therapy
+ placebo (n = 100)
• CAC-patients (n = 200)
• Not on VKA
• CAC score >100; < 400
Population
Standard therapy
+ Vitamin K2 – MK7 (360) (n =100)
Week 0 Week 52 Week 104
• End points: primary = progress of coronary calcification secondary = vascular stiffness and biomarkers
