Guest guest Posted December 15, 2006 Report Share Posted December 15, 2006 Department of Hepatology, Graduate School of Medicine, Osaka City University, Osaka, Japan.CONTEXT: Previous findings indicate that vitamin K2 (menaquinone) may play a role in controlling cell growth. OBJECTIVE: To determine whether vitamin K2 has preventive effects on the development of hepatocellular carcinoma in women with viral cirrhosis of the liver. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: Forty women diagnosed as having viral liver cirrhosis were admitted to a university hospital between 1996 and 1998 and were randomly assigned to the treatment or control group. The original goal of the trial was to assess the long-term effects of vitamin K2 on bone loss in women with viral liver cirrhosis. However, study participants also satisfied criteria required for examination of the effects of such treatment on the development of hepatocellular carcinoma. INTERVENTIONS: The treatment group received 45 mg/d of vitamin K2 (n = 21). Participants in the treatment and control groups received symptomatic therapy to treat ascites, if necessary, and dietary advice. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: Cumulative proportion of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. RESULTS: Hepatocellular carcinoma was detected in 2 of the 21 women given vitamin K2 and 9 of the 19 women in the control group. The cumulative proportion of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma was smaller in the treatment group (log-rank test, P =.02). On univariate analysis, the risk ratio for the development of hepatocellular carcinoma in the treatment group compared with the control group was 0.20 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.04-0.91; P =.04). On multivariate analysis with adjustment for age, alanine aminotransferase activity, serum albumin, total bilirubin, platelet count, alpha-fetoprotein, and history of treatment with interferon alfa, the risk ratio for the development of hepatocellular carcinoma in patients given vitamin K2 was 0.13 (95% CI, 0.02-0.99; P =.05). CONCLUSION: There is a possible role for vitamin K2 in the prevention of hepatocellular carcinoma in women with viral cirrhosis.Hillbilly Tim <knoxweb1@...> wrote: please, keep posting your info every week .how you feel,sides,etc. that will help me alot with my choice.Janet <doc_jade > wrote: Call me if you need to talk you through it.

I have loved being able to sit on the back porch and look at the constellations in the evening. I even was able to take advantage of the sunshine and warmth and plant a few bulbs that someone kindly gave me. I have this wonderful yard here but didn't really have time or the tools to get much work done on it when I moved in. I'm already looking forward to the spring. I suppose we'll see snow again soon - hmm - maybe a few giant snow men.My first week of treatment went really well in terms of sides. First week's labs came back fine. I did have a real loss of appetite. I injected last Thursday evening and really had to force the eating. But Monday night I felt myself returning to a more normal me. I also had a lot of stomach cramping, lower back pain, etc., but all manageable. My son has been sick all week and I think my body is also fighting that. So tonights the night again! I almost wish I could have done an injection right after the first one (which I didn't quite do by myself!), but a week later and I am already sensing that my needle phobia is kicking in. So - I am bracing myself - telling myself that I can do this, practicing visualization - thinking if I can close my eyes the moment before and visualize it being done - open them and wham-o - it will be over. If only I didn't have to look lol. Wish me luck :-).Well, my best to everyone. It's good to know that I am not alone.

Guest guest Posted November 23, 2007 Report Share Posted November 23, 2007 I can send again next week - traveling right now But if you search the old messages of the list should find a bunch. I have had many reports of people who did not vaccinate but allowed vitamin k and their infants had major problems soon after - stopped breathing and more and delivery was fine.

Guest guest Posted November 23, 2007 Report Share Posted November 23, 2007 Hi . I just had a baby 5 weeks ago. I saved the posts from Sherri and will try to find them for you. I know you asked for risks, but the other important consideration is the NEED for them. Only 1 in 10,000 babies born have the clotting problems that the vit K is given for. The chances are very slim your baby actually has a need for this. Eat your green leafies over the next few weeks, kale is an excellent source of K. Keep in mind if you have a boy and want to circumcise, they may not be willing to without a Vit K shot, since it is considered a cosmetic procedure. I did not do the K shot, the eye ointment and of course Hep B. Make sure EVERYONE knows your wishes and it is in your chart. My friend is an OB nurse where I delivered, and the hospital allowed her to come in and work as extra staff for my delivery which was a c-section. She told me Vit K and ointment they do not need consent, but Hep B they do. So make darn sure you tell your nurses especially. Find out when they typically do the shot, some do it right after birth, some do it after mom and baby are settled in. With a c-section, this hospital does it right in the OR. I ended up having general anesthesia because my spinal would not take in my abdomen. Thankfully it was never an issue about not getting the ointment or shot. It helped my friend was the nurse and knew what I wanted. She even took pictures since I couldn’t have anyone in there under general. Becky Vitamin K I know I have asked this before and I got some wonderful responses but some how my e-mails have been lost. I need to know the risk of Vitamin K injections at birth. Is there a web site I can go to? My little one is due in 6 weeks and I want all the info on hand. Thanks again and Happy Thanksgiving to you all. May your day be filled with many blessings. We have much to be Thankful for! Our children have come a long way in this battle! They are truly my heros! Be a better sports nut! Let your teams follow you with Mobile. Try it now.

Guest guest Posted April 7, 2008 Report Share Posted April 7, 2008 Thank you Val, it is fascinating because including work done outside the drug Co. controlled channels, but still interesting and important work. If they can't synthesize it from petrol, no patent. No patent, no whopping profits. My trouble in stage 4 is any isolated nutrient will make me quite ill. But I do greens and sour milks regularly. The recent stuff some posted in here about the taking of vitamin D which is isolated was interesting too. What is known, and in that subset, that which is right for everyone is so small a domain they should teach it in school. Kids running ot thinking doctors will help them whatever happens is a cruel joke in some cases. Dave Valarie wrote: > > Dave, here's an article about Vitamin K that I found interesting.

Guest guest Posted January 20, 2011 Report Share Posted January 20, 2011 thanks for all the info! turns out at my appointment today my midwife informed me she talked to the hospital and they were faxing over refusal forms. as long as i filled them out and as long as i could provide them with the name of a pediatrician that would see my baby they were fine with it! so it looks like someone else raised hell before i had to. Unfortunately i am going to be on antibiotics in labor(strep +) and if i end up with more " risk " factors i may reconsider the injection over the oral K that i bought. Thanks for all the new links as i havent read some of them. I am also talking to a CPM about their protocol in homebirths. All i wanted is for it to be MY decision and looks like I get to make it! thanks again for all the responses! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THAT is NOT good The children I see with autism that are UNvaccinated are those that antibiotics during pregnancy,labor & delivery or post delivery,either directly or via breastmilk. The INJECTION is meaningless Please go to OT4VAX list and many there will tell you how they turned their supposed strep tests around. Don't allow the antibiotics.
