Chaotic attractors in tumor growth and decay: a differential equation model.

Adv Exp Med Biol

Health Catalyst, Salt Lake City, UT, USA,

Published: April 2015

Tumorigenesis can be modeled as a system of chaotic nonlinear differential equations. A simulation of the system is realized by converting the differential equations to difference equations. The results of the simulation show that an increase in glucose in the presence of low oxygen levels decreases tumor growth.
