About this Research Topic
Tinnitus is a complex neurological dysfunction characterized by the phantom perception of sounds. There is increasing evidence that sex and gender can have an impact on the development and maintenance of tinnitus, as well as on the responsiveness to clinical interventions. Under "sex" we understand the biological classification encoded in the DNA. Under "gender" we understand the respective social roles, behavior and expressions.
We are convinced that a better understanding of the sex and gender differences in tinnitus can be a key to unlock the tinnitus riddle. Therefore, this Research Topic seeks to attract a large collection of scientific contributions revealing sex and gender differences in tinnitus - in humans and animals. Contributions from all scientific disciplines, neurophysiological, psychological, neurological, genetic, epidemiological, data mining, statistics and therapeutic perspectives are welcome.
We accept the following forms of submissions: Original Research Articles, Review Articles, Method Articles, Clinical Trials, Case Reports, Mini-Review Articles, Code, Book Reviews, General Commentaries, Perspectives, Hypotheses & Theories.
