Peer interactions and performance in a high‐skilled labour market*
The Scandinavian Journal of Economics, Volume 124, Issue 4, Page 1087-1116, October 2022., 2022 Abstract It is not clear whether interactions among superstar employees lead to an increase in productivity. Such interactions are relatively rare, and measuring productivity is challenging. In this paper, it is suggested that these difficulties can be overcome by analysing changes in the performance of elite National Basketball Association (NBA ...

Regenerative Medicine for Tendon/Ligament Injuries: De Novo Equine Tendon/Ligament Neotissue Generation and Application [PDF]
, 2023 Tendon and ligament injuries are debilitating conditions across species. Poor regenerative capacities of these tissues limit restoration of original functions. The first study of this dissertation evaluated the effect of cellular administration on tendon/ligament injuries in horses using meta-analysis.

More than energy cost: Multiple benefits of the long Achilles tendon in human walking and running [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Elastic strain energy is stored and released from long, distal tendons such as the Achilles during locomotion, reducing locomotor energy cost by minimising muscle shortening distance and speed, and thus activation. However, numerous additional, often unrecognised, advantages of long tendons may speculatively be of greater evolutionary advantage ...

Shear Wave Predictions of Achilles Tendon Loading during Human Walking
Scientific Reports, 2019 The evaluation of in vivo muscle-tendon loads is fundamental to understanding the actuation of normal and pathological human walking. However, conventional techniques for measuring muscle-tendon loads in the human body are too invasive for use in gait ...

Are Sport-Specific Profiles of Tendon Stiffness and Cross-Sectional Area Determined by Structural or Functional Integrity? [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 The present study aimed to determine whether distinct sets of tendon properties are seen in athletes engaged in sports with contrasting requirements for tendon function and structural integrity.
