Unravelling the Silence: Exploring Tinnitus Pathophysiology and the Promise of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
Review in International journal of general medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Tinnitus is a prevalent condition often associated with hearing loss. Tinnitus may persist throughout an individual's life and can result in a range of negative outcomes, including annoyance, anxiety, depression, insomnia, heightened auditory sensitivity, difficulties with concentration, and, in severe cases, suicidal ideation. Although not all individuals experiencing tinnitus require medical intervention, approximately 20% of them pursue clinical assistance. In addition to lidocaine, no pharmacological agents have demonstrated sustained efficacy in the management of tinnitus. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has shown promise for alleviating tinnitus. Consequently, this review aimed to synthesize the latest findings from both animal and clinical studies, while also examining the potential for comprehensive treatment approaches for tinnitus using TCM based on the understanding of its pathophysiology and neuroimaging mechanisms.
