A Multiscale Mathematical Model for Tumor Growth, Incorporating the GLUT1 Expression.

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
We propose a multiscale mathematical model for the avascular tumor growth. At the cellular scale, the model takes into account the biochemical environment, the different phases of the tumor cell cycle, the cells signaling, and cellular mechanics through a bioenergetics approach. A mathematical function is employed, namely, the "health function," that stands for the cells' biochemical energy in tumor's different regions, with respect to the carrying capacity of the extracellular matrix (ECM) and the metabolic processes of tumor cells. We also encounter in the model the glucose transporter GLUT1. The role that it plays in mitosis is investigated for the different kinds of tumor cell populations, as its overexpression in malignant cells is associated with the disease development. Simulations have been made, scaling up and estimating the evolution of tumor cell populations. By incorporating biochemical processes in tumor growth multiscale modeling, we aim to provide better understanding of the disease and assessment of possible targeted therapeutic strategies.
