Longitudinal analysis of the risk factors for onset and change in tinnitus in the Busselton Healthy Ageing Study

The high incidence of tinnitus and its notable impact on daily life emphasize the importance of gaining a better understanding of the broad range of identified risk factors for developing tinnitus and change in impact. The multifaceted nature of these factors, comprising hearing-related issues, general health conditions and psychological aspects, underscore the complexity of tinnitus etiology and impact. By gaining more insight into these factors, we can inform future research efforts aimed at developing targeted prevention and intervention strategies tailored to specific demographic groups.
