How it works
tRNS is a form of non-invasive transcranial electrical stimulation intended to modulate cortical excitability, tested here alongside acoustic stimulation for tinnitus. No specific mechanistic link to a hypothesis in this knowledge base has been established from the trial itself, though some of the background literature it cites comes from De Ridder and Vanneste's research group (see Interacting Brain Networks).
This describes the treatment concept as reported in the cited research: a scientific mechanism, not a guarantee of clinical availability.
