Myzoon Ali provides us with an update on the RELEASE trial -this database provides us w/ information on age,education,time post onset,type of aphasia,lesion type,stroke profiles,severity&the different assessment tools used to assess severity for people w/ #aphasia globally

Keep up to date with the RELEASE trial! A suite of publications are currently being written to disseminate the results of this trial!

TIDieR descriptions of speech and language therapy interventions for people with aphasia; consensus from the RELEASE Collaboration; Professor Miranda Rose presents on behalf of RELEASE. How are interventions described in research? Can a framework help clarify this? #IARC2018

Professor Miranda Rose - There are layers of complexity in aphasia rehab - from delivery mode, facilitator of therapy, dose, target.... So using the TIDieR checklist may assist in progressing our science and translating our outcomes #IARC2018 Aphasia Trialists

#IARC2018 Professor Miranda Rose tells us we are not reporting the why (theoretical approach) and the what (materials, tasks) of interventions used by #slpeeps RELEASE

Professor Miranda Rose presents on how information from interventions in the RELEASE trial have been described according to the TIDieR checklist!

.Professor Miranda Rose: specific terminology is vital. What do we mean by multimodal intervention, for example? #IARC2018

The TIDieR framework has been used to review RELEASE and shows that we need to be much more specific and detailed in the language we use for intervention descriptions Professor Miranda Rose #IARC2018

.Marian Brady explains that drop out rates and non-adherence provide data on acceptability- useful for our current randomised controlled pilot trial of BCPPA Better Conversations UCL Language & Cognition Better Conversations Lab #IARC2018

Brill talk Professor Miranda Rose on Aphasia Trialists RELEASE #aphasia trx descriptions. TIDIER analysis reveals inadequacies in trx reporting/conceptualisation in a powerful way; essential experiential exercise for all researchers? Professor Lucy Dipper @jytteisaksen Simon Horton @Kirstiney82

Professor Madeline Cruice Professor Miranda Rose Aphasia Trialists RELEASE @jytteisaksen Simon Horton @Kirstiney82 Indeed. In my own experience, knowing about the TiDieR vs. using it to evaluate a number of papers for the AsPIRE Project in WG4 of Aphasia Trialists is very different!

We shouldn't be shy to ask how did you do it - are you? Amazing discussion this afternoon at #IARC2018! Aphasia Trialists RELEASE #CPTRCT

👏👏👏👏. Very much enjoyed our visit to #Portugal 🇵🇹and the @UniversidadedeAveiro #UniversidadedeAveiro. An excellent #IARC2018 conference and pre-IARC Aphasia Trialists meetings and post-IARC RELEASE meetings, Thank you both!

This positive funding experience was also expressed by Marian Brady in her plenary at #ICPL2018 this morning with reference to the RELEASE collaboration

Our RELEASE protocol is now available via open access bit.ly/2Hqyjx2 describing #IPD #systematic review #meta-analysis looking at #aphasia #recovery and #rehabilitation after #stroke
