Development of a diffusion-based mathematical model for predicting chemotherapy effects.

The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Mathematical modeling of drug transport can complement current experimental and clinical investigations to understand drug resistance mechanisms, which eventually will help to develop patient-specific chemotherapy treatments. In this paper, we present a general time- and space-dependent mathematical model based on diffusion theory for predicting chemotherapy outcome. This model has two important parameters: the blood volume fraction and radius of blood vessels divided by drug diffusion penetration length. Model analysis finds that a larger ratio of the radius of blood vessel to diffusion penetration length resulted in to a larger fraction of tumor killed, thereby leading to a better treatment outcome. Clinical translation of the model can help quantify and predict the optimal dosage size and frequency of chemotherapy for individual patients.
