Thanks for that post @Frédéric!

'We report a tendency towards a modest, sustained long-term effect of the triple-site stimulation protocol in comparison to the single-site protocol. This descriptive advantage shows that innovative treatment protocols carry potential for a more effective treatment of subjective tinnitus.'

Well that's a positive result of sorts.
Modest is good! I wonder how many db's tinnitus is reduced by and if 'sustained long term' means permanent?
