Recently, we proposed a model of tinnitus development based on a physiological
mechanism of permanent optimization of information transfer from the auditory periphery to …

Subjective tinnitus is generally assumed to be a consequence of hearing loss. In animal
studies it has been demonstrated that acoustic trauma induced cochlear damage can lead to …

Temporal processing of auditory data plays a crucial role in our proposed model of tinnitus
development through stochastic resonance (SR). The model assumes a physiological …

Background: The phenomenon of short-term tinnitus suppression by different forms of
acoustic stimulation is referred to as residual inhibition (RI). RI can be triggered in the …

Despite high prevalence of tinnitus and its impact on quality life, there is no cure for tinnitus
at present. Here, we report an effective means to temporarily suppress tinnitus by amplitude …

Human hearing loss (HL) and comorbidities like tinnitus pose serious problems for people's
daily life, which in most severe cases may lead to social isolation, depression, and suicide …

Objectives: Acoustic stimulation or sound therapy is proposed as a main treatment option for
chronic subjective tinnitus. To further probe the field of acoustic stimulations for tinnitus …

Tinnitus is the sensation of a ringing, buzzing, roaring or hissing sound in the absence of an
external sound. As tinnitus has been related to hyperactivity and synaptic plasticity changes …

The purpose of the current review is to propose a model highlighting the putative
connections between hearing loss and the phantom perception of tinnitus (tinnitus being …

Recently, it was proposed that a processing principle called adaptive stochastic resonance
plays a major role in the auditory system, and serves to maintain optimal sensitivity even to …
