Background:Growth pattern in the electroencephalographic bicoherence spectrum has recently been found to relate to anesthetic depth, and bicoherence analysis can reflect behavior of the thalamocortical reverberating network. Because the thalamocortical network is known to represent a key factor in sleep by anesthesia, systematic and qualitative bicoherence studies of different anesthetic depths is necessary throughout all pairs of frequencies. Methods:Sixteen patients were anesthetized using… 
The Impact of Nitrous Oxide on Electroencephalographic Bicoherence During Isoflurane Anesthesia
TLDR
Dissimilar to the effect of ketamine, N2O significantly decreases pBIC–high during isoflurane anesthesia, and both BIS and SEF95 slightly but statistically significantly decreased during N 2O administration.
Hyperventilation-induced hypocapnia changes the pattern of electroencephalographic bicoherence growth during sevoflurane anaesthesia.
TLDR
Hypocapnia enlarged bicoherence growth in the delta- frequency range, suggesting the contribution of subcortical oscillating mechanisms in regulating EEG during hyperventilation.
Cross-frequency coupling during isoflurane anaesthesia as revealed by electroencephalographic harmonic wavelet bicoherence.
TLDR
Isoflurane caused cross-frequency coupling between α and slow δ waves, which suggests that slow cortical oscillations organize the higher α band activity, which is consistent with other studies in natural sleep.
The effect of isoflurane anesthesia on the electroencephalogram assessed by harmonic wavelet bicoherence-based indices.
TLDR
The wavelet-based bicoherence has advantages over the traditional Fourier-basedbicoherence in analyzing volatile anesthetic effects on the electroencephalogram and tracked anesthetic results better than the traditional FBIC-based ones.
Electroencephalography-Demonstrated Mechanisms of Dexmedetomidine-Mediated Deepening of Propofol Anesthesia: An Observational Study
TLDR
Profound EEG changes support the supposition that Dex enhances propofol-induced GA from a moderate to a deeper state, and provide a theoretical basis and reference regarding protocols aimed at reducing anesthetic/sedative dosage while maintaining sufficient depth of GA.
Changes in electroencephalographic power and bicoherence spectra according to depth of dexmedetomidine sedation in patients undergoing spinal anesthesia
TLDR
The increase of δ power and the decrease of high-frequency power were associated with the gradual deepening of dexmedetomidine sedation, and the δ bicoherence peak increased with increasing sedation level and can serve as an indicator reflecting dexmedetic sedation levels.
Dopamine D2-receptor Antagonist Droperidol Deepens Sevoflurane Anesthesia
TLDR
Droperidol augments both &agr; and &dgr;-&thgr; bicoherences while shifting the &agR;-bicoherence peaks to lower frequencies, and enhances the effect of sevoflurane anesthesia on the electroencephalogram via &ggr;-aminobutyric acid–mediated oscillatory network regulation.

Changes in Electroencephalographic Bicoherence During Sevoflurane Anesthesia Combined with Intravenous Fentanyl
With the introduction of bispectral index (BIS) as a measure of a patient’s sedation during general anesthesia, attention has been directed toward bispectral analysis of electroencephalography (EEG).
Ketamine increases the frequency of electroencephalographic bicoherence peak on the alpha spindle area induced with propofol.
TLDR
Ketamine shifted the alpha peaks of bicoherence induced by propofol to higher frequencies, suggesting that ketamine changes the alpha spindle rhythms through the modulation of the nonlinear sub-cortical reverberating network.
Changes of Electroencephalographic Bicoherence during Isoflurane Anesthesia Combined with Epidural Anesthesia
TLDR
Changes in the height of two electroencephalographic bicoherence peaks correlated well with isoflurane concentration, and this peak slightly decreased in a light anesthetic state.

TLDR
Evaluating the different methodologies used to monitor anesthetic depth and the principles and potential applications of bispectral index (BIS) monitoring in veterinary anesthesia finds dynamic changes in the BIS after a noxious stimulus may signify early nociceptive activation of the cerebral cortex and may be a useful marker of inadequate analgesia.
Network modulation of a slow intrinsic oscillation of cat thalamocortical neurons implicated in sleep delta waves: cortically induced synchronization and brainstem cholinergic suppression
TLDR
This study proposes that the potentiating influence of the corticothalamic input results from the engagement of two GABAergic thalamic cell classes, reticular and local-circuit neurons, and proposes a progressive hyperpolarization of thalamocortical neurons with the deepening of the behavioral state of EEG-synchronized sleep.
An introduction to bispectral analysis for the electroencephalogram
TLDR
This tutorial describes bispectral analysis, a method of signal processing that quantifies the degree of phase coupling between the components of a signal such as the EEG.
High Thalamocortical Theta Coherence in Patients with Parkinson's Disease
TLDR
The PD pathophysiology within the framework of dysrhythmic thalamocortical interplay is discussed, which has important consequences for the choice of therapeutic strategy in patients with severe forms of PD.
Spindle frequencies in sleep EEG show U‐shape within first four NREM sleep episodes
TLDR
It is shown that slower spindles are found in the middle of the nonrapid eye movement (NREM) sleep episodes as compared with the beginning or the end of the episodes, and the spindle frequency pattern could be used to reveal variations in sleep depth within sleep stage 2.
Interactions between membrane conductances underlying thalamocortical slow-wave oscillations.
TLDR
A coherent framework that accounts for a large body of experimental data at the ion-channel, single-cell, and network levels is suggested and physiological roles for the highly synchronized oscillations of slow-wave sleep are suggested.
