Generally that would mean that when you look at the audiogram, at no point before 6 kHz does the measured loss exceed something like 30 to 40 dBHL for 'mild' loss, and 40-55 dBHL for 'moderate' loss at around the tinnitus frequency. Thresholds vary, I'd have to double check what they defined it...

Though there are a few bimodal stimulation approaches and they tend to get all lumped together, Dr. Shore's device sticks out to me as slightly more rigorous for a few reasons; their animal model is designed to induce tinnitus through 'hidden' hearing loss rather than heavier noise exposure, the...

The US military does have some interest in this stuff, I'm not sure we've got an active thread for it but this study is investigating the TNF-alpha approach for veterans. I imagine if anyone else brings something promising to market they'll be all over it, but it seems like they're mostly...

Less promising results in that Antwerp study, but there's clearly something to this. Of note is that they seem to have used higher TFI criteria ("moderate to severe") than the pending Michigan study ("A score of >17 points"). I'm hoping that the broader range in a hundred participants might at...

Searchfield's been working on this sort of thing for a while. Even if it ultimately ends up being little more efficacious than other options, I appreciate the push towards more personalised therapies and more accurate tinnitus avatars. With any luck the theories explored in this kind of work can...
