Un nouveau traitement contre l'épilepsie ? A implant that trains your brain to stop tinnitus. Is that ringing in your ears bad enough that you would install a brain implant just to be rid of it?

A implant that trains your brain to stop tinnitus

For thousands of Americans, the answer seems to be yes. A series of clinical trials for an implant made by company called MicroTransponder has demonstrated that its new device, which sits by your vagus nerve on your neck, is up to the job. Amusingly enough, though, as with a lot of bleeding-edge neuroscience, the device makers aren’t entirely sure why or how it works. The implant targets the vagus nerve, also known as cranial nerve X. The X indicates that the nerve is the tenth major nerve to exit the brain counting downwards from the cranial base.

One refinement used by MicroTransponder methodology is to pair different kinds of auditory cues with the electrical stimulation to identify the triggers of the tinnitus. Much remains to be understood regarding how tinnitus occurs. For now, vagus nerve implants seem to be the best hope tinnitus suffers might have.

Abstract Salicylate, the active component of aspirin, is known to induce tinnitus.

Salicylate Induces Tinnitus through Activation of Cochlear NMDA Receptors

However, the site and the mechanism of generation of tinnitus induced by salicylate remains unclear. Here, we developed a behavioral procedure to measure tinnitus in rats. The behavioral model was based on an active avoidance paradigm in which rats had to display a motor task (i.e., to jump on a climbing pole when hearing a sound). Giving salicylate led to a decrease in the percentage of correct responses (score) and a drastic increase in the number of false positive responses (i.e., animals execute the motor task during a silent period). Introduction Approximately 20 million people in the United States of America experience tinnitus (ringing in the ears), and probably two million of them suffer from tinnitus that interferes substantially with their daily occupation and activities.

Tinnitus: Ringing in the ears and what to do about it

Here’s how to minimize it. Tinnitus (pronounced tih-NITE-us or TIN-ih-tus) is sound in the head with no external source. For many, it’s a ringing sound, while for others, it’s whistling, buzzing, chirping, hissing, humming, roaring, or even shrieking. (To get an idea of what people with tinnitus hear, go to www.ata.org/sounds-of-tinnitus.)

The sound may seem to come from one ear or both, from inside the head, or from a distance. Almost everyone has had tinnitus for a short time after being exposed to extremely loud noise. Most tinnitus is subjective, meaning that only you can hear the noise. The course of chronic tinnitus is unpredictable. While there’s no cure for chronic tinnitus, it often becomes less noticeable and more manageable over time. What’s going on? Most tinnitus is “sensorineural,” meaning that it’s due to hearing loss at the cochlea or cochlear nerve level. Moteur de recherche CNRS. INP Toulouse Theses -
