New Study in Mice Proposes the First Gene That Could Help Prevent Tinnitus

Lol, within the next few years we should have a good idea on a time line. There are a lot of clinical trials that have never been done before. When I got my condition eight years ago there were almost zero clinical trials on the horizon.
Exactly, i understand the negativism sometimes.
but honestly i think we are in the best moment, lots of trials and investigations, like this one!
no one knew about this doctor and his research.

There was likely the same amount of research but it wasn't available online. IMO they were closer to figuring it out with destructive procedures (vestibucochlear nerve severance, labrythectomy, Intratympanic gentamacin)

Ian! im gonna have to disagree,
there is an image around this forum with a correct number on studies related tinnitus and hear loss
and they are higher than ever, im gonna try to find that table.
 
It's troubling because I feel like we know enough to fix the problem. It's just a little noise in your head how hard can it be to get rid of or least quiet it some. And maybe it's not in our head it's in our ears but the picked it in our heads so we need to fix our ears first.

Summary:
New study in mice proposes the first gene that could help prevent tinnitus, that ringing in the ears inside one's head when no external sound is present. This discovery is a first step to identify the molecules that could be targeted in treatments to silence the phantom noises, and help thousands of people.

Study: Gene to 'turn off' Tinnitus found
Researchers in Sweden have discovered a gene that may be used to prevent tinnitus, according to Science Daily.
This is how you grab peoples attention.
They must have decided this article needs a headline like this for people to read it.
 
Here's a long swedish article and interview with professor Christopher Cederroth from October 21 this year. It's interesting but I don't know how well google translate will tranlsate it for you guys. Just thought I should post it anyway. Cederroth seems optimistic and says "If we look at the big picture, we're certain that we will find some kind of treatment".
