Relationship between audiometric slope and tinnitus pitch in tinnitus patients: insights into the mechanisms of tinnitus generation
M Schecklmann, V Vielsmeier, T Steffens… - PloS one, 2012 - journals.plos.org
Background Different mechanisms have been proposed to be involved in tinnitus
generation, among them reduced lateral inhibition and homeostatic plasticity. On a
perceptual level these different mechanisms should be reflected by the relationship between
the individual audiometric slope and the perceived tinnitus pitch. Whereas some studies
found the tinnitus pitch corresponding to the maximum hearing loss, others stressed the
relevance of the edge frequency. This study investigates the relationship between tinnitus …
