“…Ten studies matched their test and control groups for age or the difference was not statistically significant (Andersson et al, 2000(Andersson et al, , 2009(Andersson et al, , 2013Dornhoffer et al, 2006;Rossiter et al, 2006;Stevens et al, 2007;Muluk et al, 2010;Gabr et al, 2011;Heeren et al, 2014;Jackson et al, 2014). These studies implicated an impact of tinnitus upon cognitive function.…”

“…Ten studies used multiple tests to assess different aspects of cognitive function, however, the rationale for the combinations were not clearly described. Only two studies justified their specific choice of test (Gabr et al, 2011;Heeren et al, 2014). Four studies used event related potential (ERP) recordings (Tables 1 & 2).…”

“…However, no single psychoacoustic measure was employed by all six studies. Six studies included a measure of tinnitus duration from time of onset (Andersson et al, 2000(Andersson et al, , 2009Dornhoffer et al, 2006;Rossiter et al, 2006;Stevens et al, 2007;Heeren et al, 2014). The incidence of bilateral and unilateral tinnitus, duration of tinnitus exposure, and degree of distress were not routinely recorded.…”

“…Heeren et al (2014) employed a test specifically investigating the interaction between different attention networks. Three studies employed predetermined combinations of tests to assess either multiple aspects of cognitive function or the interaction between different networks (Muluk et al, 2010;Gabr et al, 2011;Heeren et al, 2014). Ten studies used multiple tests to assess different aspects of cognitive function, however, the rationale for the combinations were not clearly described.…”

Objective: To systematically review and analyse experimental outcomes of studies exploring the impact of tinnitus upon cognitive function and their implications for clinical management of invasive tinnitus. Design: A systematic and descriptive review. Study sample: Eighteen studies were identified investigating the impact of tinnitus on cognitive function. Results: The 18 studies evaluated cognitive function using 24 different objective behavioural tests, nine electrophysiological recordings, one oculomotor test, and one self-report questionnaire. The studies spanned 18 years and revealed numerous interactions potentially contributing to the cognitive difficulties frequently reported by people with invasive tinnitus. The studies indicate a clear association between tinnitus and aspects of cognitive function, specifically the executive control of attention. Conclusions: Tinnitus impairs cognitive function by way of impact upon executive control of attention. Clinical management of patients reporting tinnitus and cognitive difficulties requires an understanding of the reciprocal relationship between tinnitus and cognitive function, with additive effects of anxiety, depression, and somatic cognitive bias. Further study is required to establish the impact of advancing age, hearing loss, anxiety, depression tinnitus duration, and distress upon cognitive function in people with invasive tinnitus.

“…Récemment, des travaux ont démontré la possibilité d'améliorer significativement la récupération de capacités cognitives après un accident vasculaire cérébral par l'utilisation de séances de remédiation cognitive couplées à une procédure de tDCS [32]. Ces résultats ont stimulé l'envie d'évaluer une telle démarche pour son application dans la remédiation de processus cognitifs jouant un rôle psychopathogène qui a été avéré en psychopathologie [33][34][35][36]. Bien que ces travaux soient encore aujourd'hui à un stade quasiembryonnaire, les premiers résultats s'avèrent particulièrement prometteurs [37][38][39].…”

> La stimulation transcrânienne à courant continu est une technique de neuromodulation non invasive qui induit, selon la polarité de la stimulation, une augmentation ou une diminution de l'excitabilité corticale. Bien que son efficacité clinique ait été démontrée dans l'amélioration de déficits cognitifs survenant après un accident vasculaire cérébral, des travaux récents suggèrent également son utilité dans le traitement des troubles psychiatriques ainsi que sa valeur ajoutée dans la remédiation de processus psychopathogènes impliqués dans la chronification de ces troubles. Au vu de son faible coût, cette technique pourrait rapidement venir renouveler l'univers des soins de santé mentale. < démangeaisons sous les électrodes de stimulation [1]. Au vu de ces qualités, l'application clinique de cette technique a rapidement suscité un réel enthousiasme. Ainsi, de nombreuses études ont-elles été conduites en vue d'évaluer l'efficacité clinique de la tDCS dans l'amélioration de déficits moteurs ou langagiers survenant après un accident vasculaire cérébral, dans la réduction des acouphènes chroniques invalidants ou de la douleur chronique [2]. Au fil du temps, cet engouement s'est également généralisé aux troubles psychiatriques. En France, le coût annuel des troubles psychiatriques étant estimé à plus de 100 milliards d'euros [3], le déve-loppement d'outils thérapeutiques efficaces et à moindre coût constitue un défi majeur. Sa simplicité d'utilisation, son caractère non invasif, ainsi que son aspect extrêmement peu coûteux, ont rapidement fait de la tDCS un candidat d'espoir dans cette voie. Afin d'offrir un rapide panorama de ces avancées, l'objectif de cet article est de présenter une synthèse non-exhaustive de ces travaux. Le contexte d'apparition de la tDCS ainsi que son mode d'action seront d'abord brièvement présentés. Les études cliniques examinant son efficacité en psychiatrie seront ensuite exposées. Enfin, les perspectives actuelles de recherche-développement dans ce secteur seront discutées.

Subjective chronic tinnitus consists of a more or less continuous perception of sound in the absence of a corresponding acoustic source, which can lead to various psychological problems like depression, anxiety, attentional deficits and sleep disturbances.The prevalence is 10%-15% of the general population. Various therapy and management options have been proposed, but outcomes vary, and no generally accepted cure exists. In this review, the coherence of the most frequently used aetiological models shall be evaluated, and the efficacy of several treatment options will be discussed. With respect to tinnitus treatments, we focus on controlled studies and meta-analyses. Although there are some therapies that outweigh placebo effects such as cognitive behavioural therapy, neurofeedback or neuromodulation techniques, they mainly target secondary symptoms and not the tinnitus tone itself. Furthermore, positive treatment effects only seem to last for a limited period of time.We conclude that long-lasting combination therapies such as neurofeedback of auditory cortex inhibitory EEG signatures, cognitive therapy and sound-tactile stimulation may provide more efficient outcomes if they target the intensity of the tinnitus tone itself and not only secondary psychological symptoms.
