Table 3. Correntropy coefficients between ΔCVF and BVF (IJVs and VVs) data.

MS CTR
η(ΔCVF,BVF VV C) 0.1523 0.1587
η(ΔCVF,BVF VV O) 0.0823 −0.0958
η(ΔCVF,BVF IJV C) 0.1307 0.5374
η(ΔCVF,BVF IJV O) −0.2953 −0.1264

The interaction between ΔCVF and BVF (IJVs and VVs) for MS group and CTR group behaved almost in the same way at the VVs flow recording, as revealed by the magnitudes of the correntropy coefficients (first and second rows of the table).The variable ΔCVF seemed to be mainly associated to the BFV variable measured at the IJVs. The healthy subjects showed a positive correntropy coefficient in the clinostatism position (clinostatism), while for the patients there was an anticorrelation between ΔCVF and BVF of the IJVs in the seated position measurement.
