ACEMg for Hearing Loss and Tinnitus

Ann Arbor, Michigan
ACEMg (Soundbites) is a neuroprotectant dietary supplement designed to block the initiating biological events in the inner ear leading to sensorineural hearing loss, SNHL, which accounts for more than 90% of all hearing loss. SNHL is so common it is called hearing loss. There is no cure for SNHL. The 24-week OTIS Study aims to validate findings from the previous two-year real-world study demonstrating ACEMg (Soundbites) preserved or improved auditory function (hearing) for 75.3% of participants who used it daily, with most improvement occurring within six months. Additionally, the study aims to assess the potential of ACEMg to relieve tinnitus symptoms in people with tinnitus. SNHL and tinnitus are related, but tinnitus relief was not measured in the previous two-year study. The OTIS study aims to answer two questions. First, does the real-world data demonstrate that hearing loss is stabilized or improved at the end of the test among participants with sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL or inner ear hearing loss) at the beginning? Second, do participants who self-report tinnitus symptoms at the start of their test report reduced symptoms at the end? Participants must be eighteen years of age and older and self-report hearing loss and/or tinnitus. The study is conducted at home using a smartphone app and a web-based assessment and data reporting tool developed for this study. The study starts with a baseline hearing assessment. Participants with tinnitus complete a baseline tinnitus survey. Then, each participant takes ACEMg softgel capsules daily, repeating the hearing assessment and the tinnitus survey after about 12 and 24 weeks. Assessment scores at the beginning of the study will be compared with scores at the end. Participation in the study is free.

Sound Exposure Monitoring for Hearing Loss

Ann Arbor, Michigan
The Apple Hearing Study is a partnership between the University of Michigan and Apple to study sound exposure and its impact on hearing health. This groundbreaking study will advance the understanding of how hearing could be impacted over time by exposure to sound at certain levels. The investigators will measure headphone and environmental sound exposures over time among participants, and determine how these exposures impact hearing and stress levels. US residents who own an iPhone, download the Apple Research app and consent to participate will be randomly assigned to two groups, one with a "Basic" user interface in the Research app, and one with an "Advanced" user interface. Users in the "Advanced" group will receive additional information about their exposures and be given additional surveys and hearing tests based on their music and environmental sound exposures. The study will provide investigators with a better understanding of listening behavior and its overall impact on hearing health. This information will in turn help guide public health policy and prevention programs designed to protect and promote hearing health in the US and globally.

Guided ICBT for Tinnitus

London, Ontario
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to learn if guided Internet-delivered Cognitive Behavioural Therapy can treat tinnitus-related distress and its associated comorbidities such as anxiety, depression, insomnia, and quality of life among adult tinnitus patients in Canada. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does guided internet-delivered cognitive behavioural therapy for the treatment of tinnitus reduce tinnitus-related distress and tinnitus-associated comorbidities (depression, anxiety, insomnia, quality of life) among adult tinnitus patients aged 18-79 years in Canada from pre-treatment to post-treatment and 3-month follow-up? * Do participants in the personalized ICBT treatment group show worse improvements in patient-reported outcomes from pre-treatment to post-treatment and 3-month follow-up than the standard ICBT control group? The researchers will compare a personalized ICBT program to a standard ICBT program to investigate if participants in the personalized ICBT program will show no worse improvements in patient-reported outcomes from pre-treatment to post-treatment and 3-month follow-up than the active comparator, the standard ICBT program. Participants will: * Receive either a personalized ICBT program or a standard ICBT program delivered over 8 weeks consisting of 21 modules. * Receive guided support of approximately 10-15 minutes per week by video chat or phone from a trained Guide over the 8-week duration of the program. * Complete assessments at baseline, post-intervention, and 3-month follow-up through online REDCap surveys with automatic emails and telephone reminders.

Noise Correlations Study for Dyslexia

Providence, Rhode Island
A fundamental problem in neuroscience is how the brain computes with noisy neurons. An advantage of population codes is that downstream neurons can pool across multiple neurons to reduce the impact of noise. However, this benefit depends on the noise associated with each neuron being independent. Noise correlations refer to the covariance of noise between pairs of neurons, and such correlations can limit the advantages gained from pooling across large neural populations. Indeed, a large body of theoretical work argues that positive noise correlations between similarly tuned neurons reduce the representational capacity of neural populations and are thus detrimental to neural computation. Despite this apparent disadvantage, such noise correlations are observed across many different brain regions, persist even in well-trained subjects, and are dynamically altered in complex tasks. The investigators have advanced the hypothesis that noise correlations may be a neural mechanism for reducing the dimensionality of learning problems. The viability of this hypothesis has been demonstrated in neural network simulations where noise correlations, when embedded in populations with fixed signal-to-noise ratio, enhance the speed and robustness of learning. Here the investigators aim to empirically test this hypothesis, using a combination of computational modeling, fMRI and pupillometry. Establishing a link between noise correlations and learning would open the door to an investigation into how brains navigate a tradeoff between representational capacity and the speed of learning.

Sound-based Treatment for Tinnitus

Toronto, Ontario
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the effectiveness of a sound-based passive treatment for reducing stress and annoyance induced by tinnitus, and how this therapy may improve tinnitus sufferers' quality of life. The main questions it aims to answer are: • \[question 1: to assess the efficacy of the LUCID/VIBE in managing the tinnitus handicap (measured by the reducing of the annoyance/stress response to tinnitus) contributing to the improvement of the quality of life of people living with tinnitus\] and • \[question 2: assess the efficacy of LUCID/VIBE in providing temporary relief through masking, such that it results in a reduction of the perceived loudness of tinnitus\]. Participants will \[use the VIBE app for 24 minutes a day for a period of 4 weeks. There will be two conditions, a Noise condition (the control condition in which the investigator will administer white noise) and the VIBE condition (the treatment condition). One approach involves broad-band masking with noise (Noise Condition), while the other uses music (LUCID Condition). Implementation of the noise condition will mirror the LUCID condition in terms of ease of access, look, feel, so that one condition does not look less professional than the other. Both conditions will be administered through the same app, and only the sound conditions will differ (white noise vs. LUCID music). All participants will be exposed to both the treatment and control conditions with the order of conditions counter-balanced (i.e., a cross-over design).

Bimodal Stimulation Device for Tinnitus

Minneapolis, Minnesota
The research objective of the proposed usability study is to assess the compliance and acceptance/satisfaction of using a bimodal stimulation device with the ability to self-adjust the sound stimulus presented to the ears via headphones. In particular, the CE marked bimodal stimulation portable device, Lenire, which is developed by Neuromod Devices Limited (Dublin, Ireland) to alleviate the symptoms of chronic subjective tinnitus, is currently configured according to a tinnitus person's audiogram (i.e., hearing threshold profile for different sound frequencies) during fitting in a hearing center. Lenire device is a non-invasive stimulation device that consists of a controller that connects to headphones for sound delivery to the ears and connects to a mouth component that provides gentle electrical stimulation to the tongue surface. Individuals are recommended to use the device for 60 minutes daily (two 30-minute sessions consecutively or at different times of the day) for at least 10 weeks. Lenire is already commercialized across Europe and available by audiologists or hearing technicians in numerous hearing centers for treating tinnitus. It has also been evaluated in two large-scale clinical trials in over 500 tinnitus participants, demonstrating tinnitus benefit and minimal risk with high compliance and satisfaction rates. The primary objective of the proposed usability study is to first assess compliance and satisfaction with the Lenire device that does not require an audiogram for fitting and that can be implemented mostly through virtual visits (except for the first visit). These modifications to the Lenire fitting process will reduce the time and personnel effort required for its implementation, enabling a broader patient population to access bimodal stimulation for tinnitus treatment, including military personnel and those who are not nearby hearing centers for in-person sessions. High compliance and satisfaction rates from this small proof-of concept usability study will then justify and guide a larger clinical study to assess efficacy and performance of this newly implemented Lenire device process.

Virtual Reality Mindfulness for Tinnitus and Misophonia

Aurora, Colorado
Children with "bothersome" tinnitus and misophonia have elevated anxiety and depression symptoms. The mainstay therapy for adults and children with these disorders is cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). CBT resources are expensive and scarce for the pediatric population. Immersive virtual reality (IVR) has been shown in the adult population to be a proxy for CBT for several mental health disorders. There is sufficient published evidence that IVR is useful in treating adults with anxiety and depression disorders. However, the evidence in children in treating either anxiety and depression symptoms or disorder is scant. Our group views IVR application as a promising medical device to decrease anxiety and depression scores in children with tinnitus and misophonia disorders. This is a randomized placebo control (single-blinded to the study subjects) study in which there will be a 2:1 ratio between the experimental and placebo subjects, receiving either active IVR or placebo exposure. A total of 30 subjects with 20 experimental (10 tinnitus, 10 misophonia subjects) and 10 placebo (5 tinnitus and 5 misophonia subjects) will enroll in this randomized clinical trial. Assessment of change of quality of life, anxiety and depression symptoms will be based on 5 validated instruments. The 5 validated instruments are: Tinnitus Functional Index (TFI), Amsterdam Misophonia Scale (A-MIS-S), Pediatric Quality of Life PEDQL), Screen for Child Anxiety Related Emotional Disorders (SCARED) and Short Mood and Feelings Questionnaire (SMFQ).

Migraine Medications for Tinnitus

Orange, California
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. Despite too many research projects on finding the mechanism of tinnitus, its pathophysiology remains poorly understood. It is well understood that many factors, such as poor education, lower income, or occupational, and recreational activity associated with high noise exposure, influence the prevalence and risk of tinnitus. Although the economic and emotional impact of tinnitus is large, there is currently no FDA-approved medication to treat this condition. However, there are pharmacological options to address the stress, anxiety, and depression that are caused by tinnitus. In this project, the investigators intend to use medications for patients with acute tinnitus to decrease the impact of tinnitus in their daily lives and activities. There are some studies on medications treating tinnitus; however, there are few randomized clinical trials to prove the efficacy of the treatment. The frequency and loudness of tinnitus will be measured before and after the course. Functional MRI of the brain will be obtained to view any changes that may occur before and after the treatment.
