Objectives: To review literature on the link between depression and anxiety in patients suffering from tinnitus. Method: A systematic review of published English-language literature was performed using PubMed, Ovid, and Cochrane databases. Results: Of the 56 eligible abstracts 15 were chosen to be included in the review. All articles showed an association of depression and anxiety in tinnitus patients. Conclusions: Because of the strong association between tinnitus, depression, and anxiety-all tinnitus patients should be screened for psychiatric disorders. Treatment for these complex conditions should involve a multidisciplinary team with cognitive behavioral therapy and possible pharmacological therapy.

“…It is stressed that the prevalence of psychiatric disorders, mainly anxiety and depression, is elevated in individuals with tinnitus (LANGGUTH et al, 2011). The review of 153 articles, done by Pinto (2014) demonstrated a high prevalence of psychiatric disorders in patients affected by tinnitus, reported in fifteen articles.…”

“…It can be divided into objective and subjective, the first being audible for someone other than the patient (PINTO et al, 2014). Various studies have separately explored the association between high levels of depression and tinnitus (LANGGUTH et al, 2011), and elevated depression and TMD levels (DOHRENWEND et al, 1999;FERNANDES et al, 2013). However, there is a lack of research investigating such variables jointly, tests applied are presented in Figure 1.…”

“…It is understood that the presence of depressive symptoms can contribute to the chronicity of TMD ( VELLY et al, 2011), mainly muscular, resulting indirectly in the plastic auditory changes that would be expressed by tinnitus, as a result of the interfering somatosensory impulses in the descending modulatory pathways (SALVINELLI et al, 2003). Even so, tinnitus is directly influenced by changes in the cortical networks and the neurotransmitter system, both compromised in depression cases (LANGGUTH et al, 2011), which results in considerable clinical comorbidity existing between tinnitus and depression.…”

Evaluation of depressive symptoms and quality of life in individuals with tinnitus and temporomandibular disorders

et al. 2017

Various etiologies are attributed to the development of subjective tinnitus, but their inter-relationship with the presence of temporomandibular disorders and depression is still poorly understood. To assess the presence of depressive symptoms in individuals with TMD and subjective tinnitus, assessing the impact on their quality of life. This is a cross-sectional observational descriptive study. We evaluated 44 patients in a public University. For TMD diagnosis as well as assessment of depressive symptoms, the RDC/TMD questionnaire was used. Otolaryngological assessment was conducted by means of pure tone, speech, and immitance audiometry. The "Tinnitus Handicap Inventory" questionnaire was also administered. 84% of the individuals with tinnitus had myofascial pain, with the masseter muscle being the most prevalent area of pain, and 16% exclusively had painful and/or degenerative TMJ changes. Among the patients with myofascial pain, 86,5% had depressive symptoms, while among those without myofascial pain, only 42,8% presented these symptoms. Eleven (11) patients (25%) reported slight impact of tinnitus on quality of life, 15 (34%) mild impact, 7 (16%) moderate, 7 (16%) severe, and 4 (9%) catastrophic impact. There was a positive association between the presence of myofascial pain and depressive symptoms (p=0,02), as the intensity of tinnitus increases and the severity of depressive symptoms (p<0,01).

“…Finally, psychiatric stressors may worsen the handicap resulting from subjective tinnitus. Depression 64 and fibromyalgia 65 have been found to associate with and exacerbate chronic tinnitus. It should be noted that subjective tinnitus generally differs from auditory hallucinations observed in psychotic disorders by the nature of the perceived sound; tinnitus generally manifests as a more simple ringing or humming, whereas auditory hallucinations tend to involve more complex sounds or speech 66 .…”
