1

Results of assessing the independence of MK chain concentration across the clusters. Cluster 1, n = 11; cluster 2, n = 19; cluster 3, n = 29; cluster 4, n = 15. Individual MK and PK values are listed in Supplemental Tables 3 and 7, respectively. BH, Benjamini-Hochberg; MK, menaquinone; PK, phylloquinone.

2

P < 0.05, Dunn post hoc test for pairwise comparisons, adjusted by the BH method.

3

P < 0.05, Kruskal-Wallis test.

4

P < 0.05, Kruskal-Wallis test adjusted using BH correction.
