  • Extended reality (XR) interventions, particularly virtual reality (VR), may reduce anxiety for patients undergoing cardiac surgeries but have not shown significant effects on pain levels.

Unlabelled: Dietary supplementation with vitamin K(1), with vitamin D(3) and calcium or their combination, was examined in healthy older women during a 2-year, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. Combined vitamin K with vitamin D plus calcium was associated with a modest but significant increase in BMC at the ultradistal radius but not at other sites in the hip or radius.
