JAMA Network

About The Study: Extended low-intensity anticoagulation with apixaban was associated with a reduction in symptomatic superficial vein thrombosis (SuVT) in patients with provoked venous thromboembolism with enduring risk factors for recurrence. Further randomized clinical trials specifically focused on SuVT are needed to ascertain optimal antithrombotic strategies in broader populations at risk of SuVT.
