Good news. I wonder if lasers are essential or if it’s just elevated temperature causing things to loosen up.
This is a garbage paper. Look at figure 5 - every treatment but one, including the control, had roughly the same effect. It's all just placebo. also notice how few people were in each treatment group: just 10 or 11! You can see how much their scores vary before treatment in figure 5. I think the differences in figure 4 are just due to how they're normalizing to the control.
I also find the THI to be an absurd metric since a large component of it is measuring your psychological well-being. Why don't any of these studies do pitch and volume matching? The apparent loudness is what i actually want to reduce.
Maybe I'll start a youtube channel where I carefully review/roast tinnitus papers, it really seems to be a field with no standards.

From the linked article [0]: 100-mW of applied laser power at 660 nm.

I have left SCDS so I hear crunching foods magnified by 10-20x, hear nystagmus of my left eyeball, and insane tinnitus.
REEEEEE. Certain repeated pure tones are painful, the type of old Vegas gambling and modern video games.
