SERIES INTRODUCTORY ABSTRACTWidening Access, Participation and SuccessThis AMEE guide series explores three interconnected strategies for widening access, participation, and success in medical education. The series emphasises the interdependence of these areas as essential to supporting students from entry to graduation. Each guide in the series addresses a specific phase of the student journey, from the first steps of widening access, through enhancing participation during their studies, to supporting their ultimate success. Aimed at supporting students from disadvantaged, under-represented, and culturally diverse backgrounds, these guides offer practical insights and examples. Through this series, we provide a roadmap to ensure that access, participation, and success are not treated as isolated concepts but as essential, interdependent elements that together support students throughout their journey. By presenting a cohesive framework that connects these three areas, the series aims to build a shared understanding and foster systemic changes that promote equity across all stages of medical education-from admissions to graduation and beyond. In addressing these issues holistically, medical schools can ensure that students not only enter and participate but also succeed and thrive, fulfilling their potential as future doctors.

Critically ill patients that require kidney replacement therapy (KRT) are among the most ill and complex patients routinely encountered in the intensive care unit (ICU). Continuous KRT (CKRT) is used across many ICUs as the therapy of choice for hemodynamically unstable patients with kidney failure. Though existing trials have not shown superior survival or kidney recovery with CKRT relative to intermittent KRT, CKRT has largely become the standard of care in developed nations for the treatment of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with shock, acute brain injury, acute liver failure, and other forms of critical illness.

Background: Kidney transplant offers better outcomes and reduced costs compared with chronic dialysis. However, racial and ethnic disparities in access to kidney transplant persist despite efforts to expand access to transplant and improve the equity of deceased donor allocation. Our objective was to evaluate after listing the association of race and ethnicity with access to deceased donor kidney transplant (DDKT) after changes to the allocation system in 2014.

China has seen a surge in labor migration and widening regional health disparities among urban older residents since the late 1990. However, the relationship between labor migration and these disparities remains unknown. This study employs the shift-share instrument method to explore the association between labor migration and the self-rated health among urban older residents with the microdata from the 1% National Population Sample Survey (2005 and 2015) and provincial panel data (2010-2020).

Early childhood education (ECE) settings are important for the development of children's healthy eating and physical activity behaviors. Efforts to disseminate and implement health behavior promotion strategies in ECE settings have seldom optimized digital health, a missed opportunity highlighted by the COVID-19 pandemic. In this commentary, we discuss previous efforts to shift ECE-based health behavior programs to digital health modalities, notable opportunities for digital health in these settings, and a multilevel perspective to support future efforts.
