Chad Cook came on the show to talk about a paper that was submitted to a ... less than reputable journal.

The goal was to show that literally anything can get submitted and published when predatory journals are involved.

But what are the consequences short and long term?

We talked to Access.Earth founder Matt McCann about the app he created.

It lets users rate and share the accessibility of locations around the world.

Using his first hand experience with having Cerebral Palsy Matthew set up Access Earth to help provide accessible information for everyone. Since then Matthew has presented at the UN and is part of the Irish Human Rights Equality Commission's Disability Advisory Committee.

Next up on the TOP 5 clinical trials from PEDRO is AVERT

Efficacy and safety of very early mobilisation within 24 h of stroke onset (AVERT): a randomised controlled trial.

You can find it in the lancet from July 2015, and the link to it is in the show notes of this episode.

We talk with Professor Julie Bernhardt is co-leader of The Florey's Stroke theme, and leads the AVERT Early Intervention Research Program.

The background for avert is:  

Early mobilisation after stroke is thought to contribute to the effects of stroke-unit care; however, the intervention is poorly defined and not underpinned by strong evidence. We aimed to compare the effectiveness of frequent, higher dose, very early mobilisation with usual care after stroke.
