Categorical variables are described with their frequency distribution. Correlation between D-dimer and the other variables of interest is described with Pearsons’ correlation test or Spearman's Rho and 95% confidence interval, as appropriate.</p><p id="par0055" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Beginning with a full model which contains all pre-established interest variables (D-dimer, ferritin, fibrinogen and reactive C protein), three analyses were made to identify the best model with clustered linear regression: a model with automated forward selection (<span class="elsevierStyleItalic">p</span> value to entry the model 0.05), a model with automated backward elimination (<span class="elsevierStyleItalic">p</span> value for elimination from the model 0.10) and an automated analysis of all possible subsets.

Thus, since the predicted value will be over- or underestimated, we consider that it cannot be used directly as a predictor. Instead, the estimation will be subtracted to the real value, obtaining the residual value. If our theoretical assumption is true, residuals of cases will tend to positivity while residuals of controls will tend to negativity. In this way, we would have a value that may discriminate between cases and controls.</p><p id="par0070" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In the case this assumption is empirically confirmed, a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve will be studied to determine the discriminative performance of the residual value to identify patients with venous thrombosis. The cut-off point which maximizes efficiency will be retained as optimal. It should be kept in mind that this is a case control study, and thus, it does not represent the real prevalence con VTE in the population, so the positive and negative predictive cannot be estimated.</p><p id="par0075" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Patients with missing data in variables of interest will be excluded from the analysis.</p><p id="par0080" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The study was approved by the local ethics committee and it was carried out in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki.
