Cervical Radiculopathy
Overview Cervical radiculopathy is dysfunction of a cervical nerve root caused by irritation or compression as it leaves the spine. It commonly produces pain radiating from the neck into one arm, sometimes with paraesthesia, numbness, weakness or altered reflexes. A disc herniation or degenerative narrowing of the neural foramen is a common cause. Diagnosis is…

RA Related Pleural Effusion
Overview Rheumatoid pleural effusion (RPE) is an uncommon extra‑articular manifestation of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), occurring in ~2–5% of patients, more often in middle‑aged men with high rheumatoid factor (RF) titres, despite RA being more common in women. It typically presents during active disease or in patients with rheumatoid nodules, but can occasionally precede joint symptoms.…

Generalised Anxiety Disorder
DSM V categorise these as seperate disorders Depressive disorders Bipolar disorders Anxiety disorders Anxiety Disorders Generalised Anxiety Disorder Specific Phobia Agoraphobia Social Anxiety Disorder Panic Disorder This will mainly focus on Generalised Anxiety Disorder and touches on Panic Disorder . Overview Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) can be defined as anxiety and worry about several events…
View topic ↗Neck of Femur Fracture
Overview A neck of femur fracture is a fracture through the region connecting the femoral head to the femoral shaft. It is an intracapsular fracture because most of the femoral neck lies within the hip joint capsule. Neck of femur fractures most commonly occur in older adults following a low-energy fall, often in the presence…

Toxic Multinodular Goitre
Overview Toxic Multinodular Goitre (TMNG) is the second most common cause of hyperthyroidism caused by a long-standing goitre and/or iodine deficiency which results in an increased risk of mutation and consequent TSH-independent autonomic function of thyroid nodules to produce excess thyroid hormones. Common clinical manifestations include hyperthyroidism and a painless thyroid goitre with palpable nodules.…

Acute Coronary Syndrome: Myocardial infarction (STEMI, NSTEMI)
Overview Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) describes acute myocardial ischaemia caused by an abrupt reduction in coronary blood flow. It includes myocardial infarction (MI) and unstable angina and is a time-critical medical emergency. This article focuses on ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). 1 Myocardial infarction is diagnosed when there is…

Achilles Tendinopathy & Rupture
Overview Achilles tendinopathy & rupture are common causes of posterior ankle pain and disability, particularly in active adults. Tendinopathy presents with chronic pain, stiffness, and impaired function, while rupture is an acute injury characterised by a sudden “pop” and loss of plantarflexion power. Achilles tendon injuries are increasingly prevalent due to sports participation, with rupture…

Good places to begin
Explanations learners return to.
Part II – Oxidative Phosphorylation, Electron Transport Chain
Dive into oxidative phosphorylation and the electron transport chain to understand how cells generate ATP through mitochondrial processes. This video explains the key steps, molecules, and energy conversions involved in the final stage of cellular respiration.
Familial Hypocalciuric Hypercalcemia + other calcium sensing disorders – pathophysiology, treatment
Familial hypocalciuric hypercalcaemia as the name suggests is a cause of hypercalcaemia. It runs in the family and is characterized by autosomal dominant inheritance with high penetrance. Affected people typically present in childhood where they get hypocalciuria (peeing low amounts of calcium) despite having elevated calcium levels in the blood hypercalcaemia.
Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System Overview
Understand the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) and how angiotensin II is formed and functions to regulate blood pressure and fluid balance. This video explains the key steps in the pathway and the organs involved, including the kidneys, liver, lungs, and adrenal glands.
Our mission
Medical science is complex. Understanding it should feel possible.
Armando Hasudungan turns difficult medical science into clear visual explanations and connected learning experiences—so learners can see the whole picture, remember what matters and find a clearer way forward.
See it clearly
Turn abstract processes and invisible relationships into something the learner can picture.
Connect the pieces
Build understanding around how concepts fit together—not a pile of isolated facts.
Make it useful
Help learners move from explanation to recall, revision and the next logical step.
What clarity feels like
When the topic stops being a blur.
Learners do not come back because the subject became easy. They come back because the explanation gave them a picture they could work with.
“Armando's teaching style gives me the foundational knowledge.
Jessica Payne-Burnett
Medical Student, Charles Sturt University
“The notes I make during his videos help me retain everything better.
Ayesha RaiStudent, Islamabad Medical and Dental College
“The drawings are amazing and super easy to remember.

Coming soon: the AH study platform
The explanation is only the start.
The free library helps you find a clear explanation. The AH platform is being built to help you connect the resources, follow a clearer path and check what actually stuck.
- Watch in a focused, ad-free study environment.
- Move between connected videos, notes, diagrams and questions.
- Know what belongs next instead of rebuilding the study path yourself.
- Test your understanding while the topic is still fresh.
New and worth a look
Keep building the picture.
