Filter by:Somatic tinnitus is an unpleasant perception of sound that occurs in the absence of any external acoustic stimulus. Despite the correct diagnosis of somatic tinnitus, there is currently no specific treatment. The hypothesis of this study is that the application of manual therapy to the cervical region will help to treat tinnitus in patients. This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of manual therapy in the treatment of somatic tinnitus of cervicogenic origin.
We aimed to analyze the effect of continuous dual session tDCS in patients with severe chronic subjective tinnitus without any evidence of hearing loss in terms of relief of tinnitus perception, distress, and loudness. Also, we investigated the difference in the maintenance duration of the tinnitus suppression effect of consecutive dual session tDCS compared to other groups followed up for 2 months.
By comparing the clinical manifestations, ABR parameters and cerebral cortex blood oxygen levels of chronic tinnitus patients and healthy subjects under two different body states, the peripheral-central correlation of chronic tinnitus patients was explored, and the modern scientific significance of the theory of "two ears connecting the brain" was initially expounded. On this basis, the immediate and cumulative effects and peripheral-central correlation of "dao qi tong luo" intervention in chronic tinnitus were observed, and the effective mechanism of "dao qi tong luo" treatment was explored.
Among the theories of tinnitus generation, there is that of central neuroplastic changes, which reports the association between changes and reorganization that occur in central auditory pathways and impacts on associated areas due to the altered neural signal. Auditory training modifies these altered pathways through auditory exercises, which provoke positive neuroplasticity. Musical auditory training is a proposal to stimulate auditory, cognitive and metalinguistic skills with activities focused on musicality. Therefore, the objective of this study is to verify the effect of musical auditory training (MAT) on the neuroplasticity of the auditory system and the perception of tinnitus disorder in young adults.
This trial aims to use machine learning to analyze fNIRS imaging data of specific brain regions of tinnitus patients, thereby constructing a predictive model of the clinical efficacy of acupuncture for SNT.
The goal of this study is to evaluate the effect of 4-7-8 breathing exercise on tinnitus handicap, psychological factors and sleep quality. There will be a parallel-group randomized controlled trial study and consists of two groups. Both groups will receive 1 hour of informative session on tinnitus and the experimental group will also perform 4-7-8 breathing exercises for 6 weeks. Visual analog scale, tinnitus handicap inventory, insomnia severity index, trait anxiety inventory, and perceived stress scale will be applied before and after the application.
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the factors and mechanisms underlying tinnitus generation and chronification in patients with sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL) . The main questions it aims to answer are: - What are the peripheral and central influencing factors that contribute to tinnitus in patients with SSNHL? - Can serum metabolic biomarkers be identified to predict and monitor tinnitus prognosis in these patients? Participants in this study will include patients with SSNHL and tinnitus, patients with SSNHL without tinnitus, and healthy subjects. They will be asked to undergo a series of assessments, including audiological tests, vestibular function examinations, and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Additionally, blood samples will be collected for metabolomics analysis. Investigators will compare the brain functional states and serum metabolite profiles of patients with SSNHL and tinnitus to those without tinnitus. Morever, tinnitus symptom characteristics, audiological outcomes, and brain functional states will be assessed during time.
This study intended to search for a relationship between the multifrequential admittancemetry and the pulsatile tinnitus.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the different dose regimens of the efficacy of oral steroids in the acute tinnitus population. Participants will receive different appropriate dosages of prednisone tablets and oral Ginkgo Biloba tablets.
Over the years Tinnitus Sound Therapy (TST) has been undergoing rigorous modification according to the availability of various technologies such as Hearing Aids, personal amplification devices, mp3 players, and now mobile phones. Now more than ever, it is a great opportunity to enhance accessibility, flexibility and engagement of TST as it is easy to personalize, provide tailored therapy program as well as obtaining feedback and real-time monitoring allows us to record progress of the program while keeping the cost low, which benefits to avoid purchasing personal amplification device or Hearing Aids, and hence allowing large number of people to access the service to improve the quality of life affected by Tinnitus. The offers by mobile phone applications are too huge to avoid as the interface has gaming elements, progress tracking, reminders, and support networks, therefore providing enjoyable experience. Integration of various multimodalities into a single platform including sound therapy, relaxation exercises and educational resources addresses both the auditory and psychological aspects of tinnitus. Our study focuses on personalized sound therapy. Real-time monitoring of progress and the effectiveness of such research will show potential to revolutionize the delivery of TST conveniently as a routine treatment for the patients that fit the inclusion criteria.
