ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To evaluate the clinical efficacy of music therapy in the treatment of tinnitus.METHODS:
Three English databases (PUBMED, Embase, Web of Science) and three Chinese databases (CNKI, VIP, and Wanfang) were searched, and eligible articles were selected according to the set inclusion criteria. Clinical efficacy was used as the primary outcome, and each score was used as the secondary outcome. Using RevMan5.3 software for statistical analysis.RESULTS:
A total of 14 studies involving 1239 tinnitus patients were included. The results of the meta-analysis showed that music therapy had a certain clinical efficacy in the treatment of tinnitus, but there was no significant difference compared with the control group (OR = 1.00, 95%CI =0.83-1.22; P = 1.00). However, music therapy significantly improved THI score (MD = -6.77, 95 % CI = -9.62 to -3.92; P < 0.00001), TSQ (MD = -2.80, 95 % CI = -3.23 to -2.36; P < 0.00001), tinnitus loudness (MD = -3.90, 95 % CI = -6.58 to -1.23; P = 0.004), VAS score (MD = -1.11, 95 % CI = -2.11 to -0.11; P = 0.03) and TQ score (MD = -8.36, 95 % CI = -11.10 to -5.62; P < 0.001).CONCLUSION:
Music therapy is an effective method for the treatment of tinnitus, which can improve the THI score, tinnitus severity, VAS score, and TQ score and reduce the loudness of tinnitus. Due to the low quality of the included literature, the current conclusions need to be further verified by more and higher-quality studies.Palabras clave
