    New University of Michigan Tinnitus Discovery — Signal Timing

    Did anybody press him on that comment? I can't remember... I've just done what I felt I had to and acquaint myself with these processes since Neuromod really started to look like a serious contender six or seven years ago (or however long it was). Regarding the age of this thread, you're quite...

    New University of Michigan Tinnitus Discovery — Signal Timing

    Based on 50% of the pivotal trial data being unusable. We don't need to know about that. 50% of the data is unusable. Whatever they have been working towards cannot now be delivered. Read the first line of my post again. Then consider the facts and weigh these against the balance of...

    New University of Michigan Tinnitus Discovery — Signal Timing

    Obviously speculation, but based upon the available facts and balance of probability, this is the situation as I personally see it: Regarding trial criteria, the UMich team set the bar of clinically significant effect as low as possible. This is detailed in one of the post-trial Q&As Susan...

    Metalworking, Noise Exposure, and Managing a Tinnitus Spike

    When tinnitus becomes severe, it can be a very cruel and demanding condition that few people, even those who "have tinnitus," can understand. You're doing the best you can. You have to keep living your life.

    The Bionics Institute Claim They Have Found a Way of Objectively Measuring Tinnitus

    I'm not sure I agree with the argument about self-reporting anti-depressant efficacy and the absence of an external reference point. It's scarce for patients to exist in a bubble; those around a patient taking anti-depressants will notice improvements in their mental state when the medication is...

    The Bionics Institute Claim They Have Found a Way of Objectively Measuring Tinnitus

    He made that comment about 5 years ago here. I like that Dr. Nagler posted on Tinnitus Talk, but I do take issue with that particular comment. If the volume doesn't closely relate to the level of irritation or intrusion, then we're back on that slippery slope to CBT. I don't discount CBT...

    Introducing Tinnitus Quest

    Strange that it costs £110 to access that 2015 paper; I'm able to view the full document clicking your link. I'm not overly familiar with Rauschecker's most recent work, but the tinnitus paper of his that I generally draw on is this one. I've read comments that it's an overly complicated paper...

    Introducing Tinnitus Quest

    Within that statement lies the pretext for Jastreboff's infamous comment likening those of us who don't respond to his TRT protocols as "white flag wavers." To the best of my knowledge, Jastreboff's generation of tinnitus thesis has never actually escaped the textbooks and led to a final...

    Merry Xmas everyone. Second half of 24's been a bit rough my side. Ears ain't getting better and that's where it's at. But somehow, I keep chiselling on through. If I can do it so can you. Big chin up for '25 to all my tinni pals :beeranimation:

    For a root canal procedure last year I wore standard Heartek musician's earplugs with the medim range filter. It was fine for me.

    Rinri Therapeutics

    Re delivery; I believe there are already suitable systems out there. For example, I can't see why a modified TORS machine couldn't be used.
