The detection of an astrophysical flux neutrinos in the TeV-PeV energy range by IceCube observatory has opened new possibilities for study extreme cosmic accelerators. apparent isotropy neutrino arrival directions favors extragalactic origin this flux, potentially created a large population distant sources. Recent evidence emission from sources include active galaxies TXS 0506+056 and NGC 1068....

Abstract Dark matter particles near the center of a blazar, after being accelerated by elastic collisions with relativistic electrons and protons in blazar jet, can be energetic enough to trigger detectable signals at terrestrial detectors. In this work, focusing on blazars TXS 0506+056 BL Lacertae, we derive novel limits cross section scattering between dark means available Super-Kamiokande da...

Abstract Aim Ventral hernias including incisional ones are very common in our population. Mesh reinforcement options for ventral/incisional hernia repair continue to evolve with advances polymer science and better understanding of the extracellular matrix. Consensus on safety efficacy these various types synthetic biologic mesh has yet be reached. Intraperitoneal onlay (IPOM) is laparoscopic te...

PURPOSE To determine the effects of platelet-released growth factors (PRGF) on bone-to-implant contact (BIC) in minipig cortical bone. MATERIALS AND METHODS In each of 8 adult minipigs, 2 implants were placed in the facial wall of the mandible, one implant with and one without PRGF. PRGF was defined as the supernatant from washed, thrombin-activated, allogenic, platelet-rich plasma cells obta...
