Modulation of Brain Electroencephalography Oscillations by Electroacupuncture in a Rat Model of Postincisional Pain

<table>Phase couplings at different frequency bands: statistical analysis of the filtered wavelet bicoherence (FIWBIC) values in the postincisional pain model of rats. Boxplots stand for the phase coupling at local frequency bands, and the <svg height="12.175" id="M23" style="vertical-align:-3.56265pt" version="1.1" viewbox="0 0 9.9624996 12.175" width="9.9624996" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">
