Correction for Lorenzo et al., Computer simulations suggest that prostate enlargement due to benign prostatic hyperplasia mechanically impedes prostate cancer growth

ENGINEERING Correction for “Computer simulations suggest that prostate enlargement due to benign prostatic hyperplasia mechanically impedes prostate cancer growth,” by Guillermo Lorenzo, Thomas J. R. Hughes, Pablo Dominguez-Frojan, Alessandro Reali, and Hector Gomez, which was first published January 7, 2019; 10.1073/pnas.1815735116 (Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 116, 1152–1161).

The authors note that Eq. 1 on page 1158 appeared incorrectly. The corrected equation appears below.

$$\frac{\partial \varphi }{\partial t}=\nabla \cdot \left(M{D}_{\varphi }\nabla \varphi \right)+M\left(\chi s-A\varphi -\frac{1}{\tau }\frac{\text{d}F\left(\varphi \right)}{\text{d}\varphi }\right)$$
