TINNITUS
In this double-blinded randomized clinical trial of precisely timed bisensory (auditory-somatosensory) stimulation designed to induce LTD, a tinnitus-generating circuit, we hypothesized that tinnitus would be reduced in humans with somatic tinnitus. The bisensory treatment was compared with an auditory-only treatment, a condition that was not hypothesized to induce LTD into the circuit.These results support the results of a previous pilot study with 20 participants,Given that LTD in the DCN circuit is not apparent with auditory-only stimulation, the second possibility is that the unimodal effects in this study and the pilot study
