Abstract in brief

  • The text discusses a study that evaluates the effectiveness and safety of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for adults suffering from tinnitus, a condition affecting up to 21% of adults, with 1-3% experiencing severe issues.
  • The research involved analyzing 28 randomized controlled trials from mainly Europe, including 2733 participants, to compare CBT with no intervention or other treatments, focusing on quality of life and adverse effects, with outcomes measured primarily at the end of treatment.
  • The findings suggest that CBT may help reduce the impact of tinnitus on quality of life, but the certainty of the evidence varies, and data on long-term effects are limited, with studies conducted in hospital or online settings.
