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

“…Cotreating the cells with both topotecan and andrographolide simultaneously at various concentrations did not result in any significant changes. However, pretreating the cells with andrographolide for 24 hours prior to topotecan addition, led to a significant decrease in cell proliferation (39%) as compared to treatment with the compounds separately (67%). …”

Coping mechanisms among Lebanese first-time college students by Doumit, Rita

“…The result of the mediation analysis showed that coping did not mediate the relationship between stress and well-being. Implications for Nursing Practice and Research: The results of this study will provide a better understanding of factors that are predictive of decreased well-being in Lebanese first-time college students and will be valuable in developing culturally sensitive intervention of stress and coping management program with a surveillance system and a systematic planning and evaluation procedure to respond to emerging and changing students’ needs at the Lebanese American University.…”
