十多年来，耳鸣一直是接受补偿的退伍军人中最常见的与服务有关的残疾(退伍军人福利管理局，2018年)。然而，耳鸣的高患病率并不局限于退伍军人。据估计，在美国总人口中，约有25%(约5000万成年人)患有耳鸣(Shargorodsky，Curhan，&Farwell，2010)。患有耳鸣的人尝试了各种管理策略，取得了不同程度的成功。目前，耳鸣还没有治愈的方法，由于生理、心理和心理社会因素会影响耳鸣的出现、严重程度以及困扰和致残的程度，因此耳鸣的治疗也变得复杂。耳鸣的负面后果表现为睡眠障碍、焦虑、抑郁，甚至自杀意念(Cima，Crombez，&Vlaeyen，2011；Erlandsson&Hallberg，2000；han等，2018；Liu，Streelman，&Guslee，2015)。了解引起耳鸣的潜在机制是至关重要的，这样才能针对神经生成器(S)和调节通路开发治疗方法。2017年秋天，退伍军人管理局(VA)康复研究和发展服务国家康复听觉研究中心(NCRAR)主办了第八次两年一度的会议，题为“将耳鸣研究成果转化为临床实践”。正如会议的标题所示，会议的主要目标是将该领域的专家聚集在一起，并提供一个论坛，讨论如何将耳鸣研究结果整合到循证临床实践中。在为期3天的会议上，科学家和临床医生讨论了一系列关于耳鸣的话题，包括耳鸣的流行病学，解释其潜在原因的神经生理学模型，开发药物治疗的技术和挑战，评估和测量程序，以及目前的耳鸣管理方法。本期特刊的文章是根据七次会议报告撰写的。
For over a decade, tinnitus has remained the most prevalent service-connected disability for Veterans receiving compensation (Veterans Benefits Administration, 2018). However, the high prevalence of tinnitus is not just limited to Veterans. In the general population of the United States, approximately 25%(~ 50 million adults) are estimated to have tinnitus (Shargorodsky, Curhan, & Farwell, 2010). People with tinnitus try a variety of management strategies to varying degrees of success. Currently, there is no cure for tinnitus, and its management is complicated by the fact that physiological, psychological, and psychosocial factors influence its presence, severity, and the extent to which it is bothersome and disabling. Negative consequences of tinnitus manifest as sleep disorders, anxiety, depression, and even suicidal ideation (Cima, Crombez, & Vlaeyen, 2011; Erlandsson & Hallberg, 2000; Han et al., 2018; Liu, Streelman, & Guthrie, 2015). It is critical to understand the underlying mechanisms that give rise to tinnitus so that treatments can be developed targeting the neural generator (s) and modulatory pathways. In the fall of 2017, the Veterans Administration (VA) Rehabilitation Research and Development Service National Center for Rehabilitative Auditory Research (NCRAR) hosted its eighth biennial conference, titled “Translating Tinnitus Research Findings Into ClinicalPractice.” The primary objective of the conference, as suggested by its title, was to bring together experts in the field and provide a forum to discuss how tinnitus research findings can be integrated into evidence-based clinical practice. During this 3-day conference, scientists and clinicians discussed a range of topics on tinnitus, including its epidemiology, neurophysiological models to explain its underlying causes, techniques and challenges for developing pharmacological cures, assessment and measurement procedures, and current approaches to tinnitus management. The articles in this special issue are based on seven of the conference presentations.
