    Sound Pharmaceuticals (SPI-5557 & SPI-1005)

    I was skeptical of the idea that a treatment could return you to the way you were before developing tinnitus. If you are satisfied with your job history and have other things in life that matter more, then maybe it could feel that way for you. But for anyone in my situation, only in the movies...

    The sheer quantity of value judgments—not to mention the weasel words (e.g., “studies support that”)—made it harder to digest.

    Sound Pharmaceuticals (SPI-5557 & SPI-1005)

    I appreciate the effort you’ve put into researching this drug. However, I regret getting involved with a prediction that spans such a long timescale. Maybe I just don’t see the connection to the topic. After personal setbacks—such as not completing my education when I was younger—it’s clear that...

    Yes, a third of us! (That is, a third of us will be experiencing more peaceful moments in the next 5-10 years.) And this only applies to a relatively privileged group. Are you well-paid? Do you have a degree? Do you live in North America? Is your car new? Although I don't check any of these...

    I bet you've never heard the expression 'cum hoc ergo propter hoc'. I am profoundly disgusted by this Jastreboff now.

    I suppose you mean bombarding their ears with noise to counter the phantom sound, which is considered no better than a placebo because the parsing of your text doesn't correspond to that. As objectionable as I find TRT, Jastreboff has never said that. To his credit, he also advocates CBT, which...

    Hough Ear Institute's Hair Cell Regeneration Project

    They are doing well... in an alternate universe, where somebody thought giving them $500 million was a good idea. Of course, they're fast at spending it.

    This thread. Dr. Shore has responded to a lot of emails from Tinnitus Talk members.

    In the medical industry, there are very few reasons to link an actor's external communication with their commitments. At this point, it's equally reliable that Auricle will announce intent to run a new trial (which will last five years) or that they will "temporarily" suspend all activity...

    Auditory Mirror Therapy for Treatment of Tinnitus

    Given that you can find a movie with enough ambiance (not easy for movies, especially action movies, even with Atmos) and minimal music, essentially, what's the difference - quantitative or qualitative - of immersion between a movie and real life? 5.1 is crap compared to 7.1. I watched the...

    Treatment Prospects: Vagus Nerve Stimulation

    I'm astonished Michael Kilgard's job at the university goes unchallenged, given the extent of his scientifically unsound claims, that is, lies.
