Venous thromboembolism in patients with acute myeloid leukemia: development of a predictive model

Patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) are at increased risk of venous thromboembolic events (VTE). However, thromboprophylaxis is largely underused. This study aimed to determine possible VTE development risk factors and to develop a novel predictive model. We conducted a retrospective cohort study of adult patients with newly diagnosed AML. We used univariate and multivariable logistic regression to estimate binary outcomes and identify potential predictors. Based on our final model, a dynamic nomogram was constructed with the goal of facilitating VTE probability calculation. Out of 626 eligible patients with AML, 72 (11.5
