Aesthesiometer‐Based Testing for Laryngopharyngeal Hyposensitivity
To develop a method for threshold estimation of the laryngeal adductor reflex (LAR) response using Cheung‐Bearelly monofilaments.
The spatial percept of tinnitus is associated with hearing asymmetry: Subgroup comparisons.
The spatial percept of tinnitus is associated with hearing asymmetry: subgroup comparisons
TLDR
It is recommended that careful consideration is given to the definitions of hearing asymmetry and tinnitus spatial perception in order to improve the comparability of findings across studies.
Characterisitics and maskability of self-reported tinnitus in adult Nigerians.
BACKGROUND Tinnitus or noise perception with no identifiable acoustic origin is a perplexing symptom to sufferers as well as to otolaryngologists saddled with managing such patients. With most…
Tinnitus Modulation by Stapedectomy
  • C. Chang, S. Cheung
  • Medicine
    Otology & neurotology : official publication of the American Otological Society, American Neurotology Society [and] European Academy of Otology and Neurotology
  • 2014
TLDR
Stapedectomy in patients with otosclerosis with more than a small problem with tinnitus (TFIpre > 15) will reduce severity by at least 1 clinical category in ∼85% of cases within 6 months of surgery.
Investigating the relation between minimum masking levels and hearing thresholds for tinnitus subtyping.
Prognostic Factors for the Outcomes of Intratympanic Dexamethasone in the Treatment of Acute Subjective Tinnitus
TLDR
The duration of symptoms affected the cure rate of ITD for acute subjective tinnitus and unilateral tinn Titus was associated with better improvements in symptoms than bilateral tinnitis, and audiologic asymmetry were positively associated with the audiometric response.
Comparison of characteristics observed in tinnitus patients with unilateral vs bilateral symptoms, with both normal hearing threshold and distortion-product otoacoustic emissions
TLDR
Tinnitus characteristics in normal-hearing patients differ between the groups with unilateral and bilateral complaints, as well as normal results of distortion-product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs).
Corticostriatal functional connectivity of bothersome tinnitus in single-sided deafness
TLDR
A striatal gating model of tinnitus is supported and biomarkers to monitor treatment response and to target specific brain areas for innovative neuromodulation therapies are suggested.
Ear Preference and Interaural Threshold Asymmetry
TLDR
Querying ear preference strength in routine clinical practice would enable practitioners to identify patients with asymmetric hearing more expeditiously and promote timely evaluation and treatment.

TLDR
Careful examination, accurate diagnosis, and proper selection of patients with intractable tinnitus for cochlear nerve section offer a good chance of success.
The neuroscience of tinnitus
Lateralized tinnitus studied with functional magnetic resonance imaging: abnormal inferior colliculus activation.
TLDR
FMRI can provide objective measures of lateralized tinnitus and tinn Titus-related activation can be interpreted at a neural level, and this work demonstrates that fMRI is effective in revealingTinnitus-related abnormalities in brain function.
Development of the Tinnitus Handicap Inventory.
TLDR
The Tinnitus Handicap Inventory is a self-report measure that can be used in a busy clinical practice to quantify the impact of tinnitus on daily living and yielded excellent internal consistency reliability.
Tinnitus: surgical treatment.
TLDR
Surgical management of tinnitus, although successful in some cases, does not provide a valid and reliable mode of treatment for subjective tinnita and implant procedures might be used in patients who suffer from severe tinnitis.
Acoustic tumors: effect of surgical removal on tinnitus.
TLDR
Patients who indicated preoperative tinnitus tended to show small but statistically significant improvements in the perceived severity of the tinnitis after surgery, although the symptom rarely resolved entirely.
Effect of Amplification on Tinnitus Among New Hearing Aid Users
TLDR
A subjective evaluation of the aids' performance revealed that relief from tinnitus was frequently rated an important aspect of the user's satisfaction, and partial instead of total relief was the most commonly reported effect.
Structural brain changes in tinnitus.
TLDR
The results suggest that reciprocal involvement of both sensory and emotional areas are essential in the generation of tinnitus, and gray-matter decrease was found outside the auditory system including the nucleus accumbens.
