Subject: Reviews on the epidemology of tinnitus From: Jan Schnupp <jan.schnupp@xxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 26 Mar 2015 16:14:07 +0000 List-Archive:<http://lists.mcgill.ca/scripts/wa.exe?LIST=AUDITORY>--001a113f96be602f970512334f3a Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Dear List can anyone recommend sources/reviews that discuss not just the prevalence but also the "phenotypes" of tinnitus? I would like to know not just how common tinnitus is, but also what sort of tinnitus percepts are typical or atypical in particular groups of individuals. Am I right in thinking that tinnitus is in most cases tone-like, and only rarely noise-like? What sort of pitches are common? What sort of pitches are rare? Is there a "typical" loudness? Am I correct in thinking that tinnitus is almost always monaural? Any recommendation of literature discussing such questions would be gratefully received.
