TL;DR: This guideline provides clinicians with a logical framework to improve patient care and mitigate the personal and social effects of persistent, bothersome tinnitus.

TL;DR: Chinchillas with psychophysical evidence of chronic tinnitus were shown to have significantly elevated spontaneous activity and stimulus-evoked responses in putative fusiform cells of the dorsal cochlear nuclei (DCN), consistent with the hypothesis that chronic tonal tinnusitus is associated with, and may result from, trauma-induced elevation of activity of DCN fuses.

TL;DR: It is suggested that gap detection reflex procedures might be effective for rapid tinnitus screening in rats when the gap was embedded in a background similar to their tinnitis.

TL;DR: It was concluded that cochlear trauma in general, rather than its specific features, leads to multiple changes in central activity that underpin tinnitus, particularly affected was a subpopulation ensemble of IC neurons with the described unique triad of features.

TL;DR: An animal psychophysical model was developed to reflect several features of human tinnitus, such as its tonality and persistence, and could be useful as a screen for potential therapeutics as well as a tool to help unravel the pathophysiology of the disorder of phantom auditory perception.
