Purpose: Whole body vibration (WBV) triggers anabolic responses in various tissues,
including tendons, without requiring high force production. In this waitlist-controlled …

A patellar-tendon-bearing (PTB) bar is a common design feature used in the socket of trans-
tibial prostheses to place load on the pressure-tolerant tissue. As the patellar tendon in the …

The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of eccentric contraction execution time on
the morphological and elastic properties of the patellar tendon (PT) in a six-week, single-leg …
