Fig. 1

Consecutive effect-site concentration of propofol (Cepropofol) for i-gel insertion in male (upper) and female (lower) patients after preoperative dexmedetomidine (0.5 μg/ml) administration. Horizontal lines represent the half maximal effective effect-site concentrations (EC50). Mean EC50 (± SD) values in the male and female groups were 5.46 ± 0.26 and 3.82 ± 0.34 μg/ml, respectively (p < 0.01)
