Uniform Reliable Broadcast (URB) is a communication primitive that requires that if a process delivers a message, then all correct processes also deliver this message. A recent PODC paper [HR99] uses Knowledge Theory to determine what failure detectors are necessary to implement this primitive in asynchronous systems with process crashes and lossy links that are fair. In this paper, we revisit ...

Pectolinarin, a flavone heteroside, was isolated from Distictella elongata (Vahl) Urb. leaves ethanol extract, along with a mixture of ursolic, pomolic and oleanolic acids, besides β-sitosterol. Their structures were established on the basis of spectral analysis (1H and 13C NMR, 1D and 2D) and they were compared with literature. This is the first report on the occurrence of this flavonoid in a ...

Understanding the imbalance of carbon emissions in urban residential building (URB) sector is beneficial for equitable and effective emission reduction policies. However, URB its major driving factors remain unclear. Therefore, according to Kaya identity Zenga index, this study aims analyze unit area from 2005 2019. The results represent following: 1) Although overall reached peak value (36.17 ...

Considerable evidence demonstrates that manipulation of the endocannabinoid system regulates nausea and vomiting in humans and other animals. The anti-emetic effect of cannabinoids has been shown across a wide variety of animals that are capable of vomiting in response to a toxic challenge. CB(1) agonism suppresses vomiting, which is reversed by CB(1) antagonism, and CB(1) inverse agonism promo...

Systemic administration of the main active ingredient in cannabis, Delta9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), alters extracellular levels of acetylcholine in several brain areas, suggesting an involvement of the cholinergic system in the psychotropic effects of cannabis. Here, we investigated whether drugs acting at either nicotinic or muscarinic receptors can modulate the discriminative effects of THC...
