Abstract

Objective

We systematically reviewed and meta-analyzed the efficacy of Tailor-Made Notched Music Training (TMNMT) for primary subjective tinnitus in adults. The main goal was to evaluate TMNMT's impact on tinnitus symptoms.

Methods

Following PRISMA guidelines, we included randomized and non-randomized trials. Studies considered involved adults with primary subjective tinnitus treated with TMNMT alone or combined with other therapies. Bias risk was assessed using the Cochrane RoB 2 and ROBINS-I tools. Comprehensive database searches were conducted, and relevant data were extracted and analyzed.

Results

Three studies (total: 99 TMNMT patients, 109 sound therapy) were meta-analyzed. Using THI scores, the Forest plot showed no significant difference in tinnitus distress between TMNMT and listening to music groups (p > 0.05), with low study heterogeneity (I2 = 0 %).

Conclusion

While TMNMT offers a non-invasive approach with a potential to reduce tinnitus distress, it did not significantly outperform the only listening to music. More research is needed to optimize TMNMT for tinnitus management and to better document its safety profile.

量身定制的凹槽音乐训练对原发性耳鸣的疗效：系统回顾与荟萃分析。

目的我们系统回顾并荟萃分析了量身定制的缺口音乐训练（TMNMT）对成人原发性主观性耳鸣的疗效。主要目的是评估 TMNMT 对耳鸣症状的影响：根据 PRISMA 指南，我们纳入了随机和非随机试验。所考虑的研究涉及接受 TMNMT 单独治疗或与其他疗法联合治疗的原发性主观性耳鸣成人患者。使用 Cochrane RoB 2 和 ROBINS-I 工具评估了偏倚风险。对数据库进行了全面检索，并提取和分析了相关数据：对三项研究（共计：99 名 TMNMT 患者，109 名声音疗法患者）进行了荟萃分析。使用 THI 评分，森林图显示 TMNMT 组与听音乐组在耳鸣困扰方面无显著差异（P > 0.05），研究异质性较低（I2 = 0 %）：虽然 TMNMT 是一种非侵入性方法，具有减轻耳鸣困扰的潜力，但其效果并没有明显优于只听音乐的方法。需要进行更多的研究，以优化 TMNMT 对耳鸣的治疗，并更好地记录其安全性。
