This study explores how tinnitus (ringing in the ears) affects hearing, thinking, and brain activity by comparing people with chronic tinnitus to those without. It may help researchers understand the links between these factors.
This study tests a traditional Chinese medicine treatment called 'Dao qi Tong Luo' for chronic tinnitus. It uses a safe brain scan (fNIRS) to see how the treatment affects brain connections related to hearing.
This trial combines sound therapy with electrical stimulation and auditory training to reduce chronic tonal tinnitus. It may help if you have had constant ringing in your ears for more than 3 months but less than 5 years.
This study tests whether adding sound and/or mild electrical stimulation can reduce tinnitus (ringing or other noises in the ear). It is looking for adults who have had tinnitus for at least 6 months and can complete questionnaires about what they feel.
This study is testing whether acupuncture can help treat tinnitus by using a special brain imaging technique (fNIRS) to see how the brain responds. It may help find out who benefits most from acupuncture.
This early study uses an MRI/brain scan to see how IV lidocaine affects brain activity in people with tinnitus, and also compares it with people without tinnitus or with different hearing patterns. It may help researchers understand whether lidocaine could change tinnitus signals in the brain.
