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.
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.
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the effectiveness of a sound-based passive treatment for reducing stress and annoyance induced by tinnitus, and how this therapy may improve tinnitus sufferers' quality of life. The main questions it aims to answer are: • [question 1: to assess the efficacy of the LUCID/VIBE in managing the tinnitus handicap (measured by the reducing of the annoyance/stress response to tinnitus) contributing to the improvement of the quality of life of people living with tinnitus] and • [question 2: assess the efficacy of LUCID/VIBE in providing temporary relief through masking, such that it results in a reduction of the perceived loudness of tinnitus]. Participants will [use the VIBE app for 24 minutes a day for a period of 4 weeks. There will be two conditions, a Noise condition (the control condition in which the investigator will administer white noise) and the VIBE condition (the treatment condition). One approach involves broad-band masking with noise (Noise Condition), while the other uses music (LUCID Condition). Implementation of the noise condition will mirror the LUCID condition in terms of ease of access, look, feel, so that one condition does not look less professional than the other. Both conditions will be administered through the same app, and only the sound conditions will differ (white noise vs. LUCID music). All participants will be exposed to both the treatment and control conditions with the order of conditions counter-balanced (i.e., a cross-over design).
This study will be conducted on patients with otosclerosis attending Assiut University Hospital and undergo stapedectomy operation Evaluation of each patient will conducted preoperatively and 3 month postoperatively Patient will undergo tinnitogram and tinnitus handicap questionnaire before and after the operation to measure improvement in hearing and tinnitus
The aim of the AURACCO study is to evaluate the association between the onset of tinnitus and hearing loss in patients with locally advanced head and neck cancer treated by concomitant chemoradiotherapy or exclusive radiotherapy
This randomized controlled pilot trial aims to explore the Efficacy and central mechanism of acupuncture for treating chronic subjective tinnitus using functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS).
Clinical trials can sometimes favor certain demographic groups. Additionally, there is limited research that delves into the factors that influence participation in clinical trials, both positive and negative. The goal is to identify the obstacles and challenges that prevent participation in tinnitus clinical studies, as well as the reasons for withdrawal or discontinuation. The insights gained from this study will ultimately benefit those with tinnitus who may be invited to participate in clinical research in the years to come.
