Unification of Treatments and Interventions for Tinnitus Patients (UNITI)
UNITI results
UNITI project finished in September 2023. It’s overall aim was to deliver a predictive computational model based on existing and longitudinal data attempting to address the question which treatment approach is optimal for a specific patient based on specific parameters. Clinical, epidemiological, medical, genetic and audiological data, including signals reflecting ear-brain communication, were analysed from existing databases. Predictive factors for different patient groups were extracted and their prognostic relevance were tested in a randomized controlled trial (RCT) in which different groups of patients underwent a combination of therapies targeting the auditory and central nervous systems.

On February 14, 2020, the database and mobile app team of UNITI met in Würzburg. Myra Spiliopoulou, Miro Schleicher, Vishnu Unnikrishnan (OVGU Magdeburg), Eleftheria Velidou, ICCS Athens, Rüdiger Pryss and Carsten Vogel (University Hospital Wuerzburg) discussed first steps of the database as well as app unification issues. The Team was also joined by Ioannis Basdekis from the FORTH-ICS, Greece (via Skype). Additional meetings will follow soon.
