abstract = {Neuroimaging studies have identified networks of brain
areas and oscillations associated with tinnitus perception.
However, how these regions relate to perceptual
characteristics of tinnitus, and how oscillations in various
frequency bands are associated with communications within
the tinnitus network is still incompletely understood.
Recent evidence suggests that apart from changes of the
tinnitus severity the changes of tinnitus dominant pitch
also have modulating effect on the underlying neuronal
activity in a number of brain areas within the tinnitus
network. Therefore, in a re-analysis of an existing dataset,
we sought to determine how the oscillations in the tinnitus
network in the various frequency bands interact. We also
investigate how changes of tinnitus loudness, annoyance and
pitch affect cross-frequency interaction both within and
between nodes of the tinnitus network. Results of this study
provide, to our knowledge, the first evidence that in
tinnitus patients, aside from the previously described
changes of oscillatory activity, there are also changes of
cross-frequency coupling (CFC); phase-amplitude CFC was
increased in tinnitus patients within the auditory cortex
and the dorsolateral prefrontal regions between the phase of
delta-theta and the amplitude of gamma oscillations
(Modulation Index [MI] 0.17 in tinnitus patients vs. 0.08 in
tinnitus free controls). Moreover, theta phase in the
anterior cingulate region modulated gamma in the auditory
(MI 0.1) and dorsolateral prefrontal regions (MI 0.19).
Reduction of tinnitus severity after acoustic coordinated
reset therapy led to a partial normalization of abnormal
CFC. Also treatment induced changes in tinnitus pitch
significantly modulated changes in CFC. Thus, tinnitus
perception is associated with a more pronounced CFC within
and between nodes of the tinnitus network. CFC can
coordinate tinnitus-relevant activity in the tinnitus
network providing a mechanism for effective communication
between nodes of this network.Keywords: tinnitus pitch,
