Andrographolide pre-treatment enhances the anti-tumor activity of topotecan on acute myeloid leukemia cells in vitro by Rizk, Sandra

“…The pro-apoptotic effect upon combination of topotecan with andrographolide was further observed using annexin V/PI staining; even though andrographolide alone did not alter cell survival, however, when applied to the cells prior to topotecan treatment, the number of apoptotic cells increased from 16% to 57%. …”

Gaining or Losing Team Ball Possession: The Dynamics of Momentum Perception and Strategic Choice in Football Coaches by Walid Briki (688845)

“…Nonetheless, both variables displayed asymmetrical effects, in the sense that: (1) the strength of positive PM appeared to be easier to decrease than to increase; and (2) the greater the positive PM (or the negative PM), the lesser (or the greater) the coaches’ tendency to make a change in the organization of their teams. …”

Renewable Energy, Coal as a Baseload Power Source, and Greenhouse Gas Emissions: Evidence from U.S. State-Level Data by Squalli, Jay

“…After accounting for the role of coal as a baseload power source, an increase in the share of renewable energy is estimated to mitigate N2O emissions at the U.S. state level only if states individually decrease their share of coal use to levels below 41.47%. …”

Colloid retention and mobilization mechanisms under different physicochemical conditions in porous media: A micromodel study by Safna Nishad (16932474)

“…However, hydrophilic colloids redeposited on gas-water-solid interfaces or thin water films because of their greater capillary potential. Therefore, greater filtration efficiency is achieved with the hydrophilic colloids compared to the hydrophobic colloids for which the efficiency can be improved by changing the solution chemistry. …”

Are wars detrimental to the environment? Evidence from air pollution and land use by Marrouch, Walid

Effects of vitamin E derivatives on the proliferation of KG-1 leukemic cells in vitro by Rizk, Sandra

“…Each category includes four derivatives which differ in the position of the methyl group, generating alpha, beta, gamma and delta subtypes. Even though all these subtypes possess antioxidant effects, several new studies report that tocotrienols are more potent than tocopherols in promoting cancer cell death. …”

A combined experimental and computational study of the effect of electron irradiation on the transport properties of aromatic and aliphatic molecular self-assemblies by Y. Tong (18394389)

“…The current rectification also reduces after the electron bombardment. In order to interpret the experimental results and give right diagnostics behind the decrease of the current through the junction after electron irradiation, we supplement the experiment with quantum transport calculations using Green's functional formalism in combination with density functional theory. …”

Cryomyolysis, a new procedure for the conservative treatment of uterine fibroids by Zreik, Tony

“…Total uterine volume ranged from 41.3 to 1134.8 ml preoperatively, and 49.5 to 1320 ml postoperatively (mean increase 22% after discontinuation of GnRH agonist). Normal uterine volume ranged from 35.6 to 548.7 ml preoperatively and 45.1 to 729.6 ml postoperatively (mean increase 40%); however, myoma volume showed a mean decrease of 6% (range-87-28%). …”
