Neurobiological Similarities of Tinnitus and PTSD
Recruiting
Psychiatric distress caused by PTSD may increase attention toward tinnitus, as well as perceived loudness and discomfort. It is important to understand how tinnitus-related distress and PTSD negatively interact together, in order to develop more effective therapeutic approaches. Understanding symptoms and neurobiological mechanisms using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), can lead to the necessary knowledge to develop effective interventions for individuals who suffer from both condit...

Acoustic and Electrical Stimulation for the Treatment of Tinnitus
Recruiting
Tinnitus, or ringing in the ears, affects 10% to 30% of the population. Of those, 20% have tinnitus bothersome enough to seek medical attention. In many people, tinnitus can significantly affect the quality of life. At this point in time, there is no effective treatment or cure available for tinnitus. It has been found that electrical stimulation of the inner ear can reduce and in some cases eliminate tinnitus. The purpose of this research is to investigate both acoustic and electrical stimulat...

Treatment of Tinnitus With Migraine Medications
Recruiting
Tinnitus represents one of the most common and distressing otologic problems, and it causes various somatic and psychological disorders that interfere with the quality of life. It is well-understood that many factors, such as poor education, lower income, or occupational, and recreational activity associated with high noise exposure, influences the prevalence and risk of tinnitus. Although the economic and emotional impact of tinnitus is large, there is currently no FDA-approved medication to tr... Read More
