Under-performance of listed companies? Real earnings management and M&A: Chinese empirical evidence by Ziqiao Zhang

“…</p> <strong>Originality/value:</strong> The paper extends prior literature by taking a closer look at acquiring firms’ managerial myopia behavior in stock-financed M&amp;A. The administrators of acquiring firms have strong incentives to manage earning upward by adopting a more subtle way which is a costly means because it has value-destroying effect on performance of post-M&amp;A.…”

Optomechanical assessment of photorefractive corneal cross-linking via optical coherence elastography by Matteo Frigelli, Philippe Büchler, Sabine Kling, Sabine Kling

“…Purpose: Corneal cross-linking (CXL) has recently been used with promising results to positively affect corneal refractive power in the treatment of hyperopia and mild myopia. However, understanding and predicting the optomechanical changes induced by this procedure are challenging.Methods: We applied ambient pressure modulation based optical coherence elastography (OCE) to quantify the refractive and mechanical effects of patterned CXL and their relationship to energy delivered during the treatment on porcine corneas. …”
