Statistical analysis and machine learning of TMS-induced MEPs for predicting poststroke motor impairment and performance by Chun-Ren Phang, Shintaro Uehara, Sachiko Kodera, Akiko Yuasa, Shin Kitamura, Yohei Otaka, Akimasa Hirata

“…However, there is limited evidence regarding the relationship between MEP waveforms, post-stroke motor impairment, and functional performance. This study aimed to evaluate the predictive value of inter-trial correlation (ITC), a novel metric reflecting waveform consistency, along with MEP amplitude and resting motor threshold (rMT), in estimating post-stroke motor outcomes. …”

Financial and legal aspects of innovation clusters by A. S. Kirpa

“…The study contributes to the formation of approaches to the value, effectiveness and targeting of financial and legal incentives that affect the development of innovation clusters.At the same time, the authors proceeded from an interdisciplinary approach, since the problem of the legal status of innovation clusters inevitably affects the subject of regulation of various branches of law and has both constitutional and legal, financial, legal, civil, administrative and other aspects.For the most correct and uniform understanding of the elements of the social relations under consideration, the authors pay attention to the categorical and conceptual apparatus, which reflects intersectoral relations and the dual legal nature of the studied relations arising from the functioning of innovative clusters. …”
