Hypermobility Syndromes
Overview Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder (HSD) describes symptomatic joint hypermobility with musculoskeletal (and sometimes systemic) consequences in people who do not meet the 2017 diagnostic criteria for hypermobile Ehlers–Danlos syndrome (hEDS) or another heritable connective-tissue disorder (HCTD). Prevalence of generalised joint hypermobility varies (≈2–35% depending on age/sex/ethnicity and cut-offs), with symptomatic states more common in females…

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…

Primary Hyperaldosteronsim (Conn Syndrome)
Overview Primary hyperaldosteronism (also known as Conn syndrome when caused by a solitary aldosterone-producing adenoma) is an endocrine disorder characterized by the autonomous, unregulated overproduction of aldosterone from the zona glomerulosa of the adrenal cortex. Under physiological conditions, aldosterone secretion is regulated by the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) and serum potassium levels. In primary hyperaldosteronism, aldosterone…

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
Overview Complex chronic syndrome characterised by recurrent abdominal pain and bowel dysfunction, in the absence of a structural abnormality. It is not associated with an increase in mortality, however, it is associated with substantial morbidity and a significant decrease in an individual’s quality of life. IBS belongs to a group of disorders collectively known as Functional Gastrointestinal Disorders.…

Alzheimer Disease
Overview Alzheimer disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disease characterised biologically by accumulation of amyloid-β plaques and pathological tau, with subsequent synaptic dysfunction, neuronal loss and cerebral atrophy. It is the most common cause of dementia and accounts for at least 60% of dementia diagnoses. 1 The clinical continuum ranges from an asymptomatic biological phase through…

Goodpasture Syndrome (Anti-GBM disease)
Overview Goodpasture syndrome, now more precisely termed anti-glomerular basement membrane (anti-GBM) disease , is a rare autoimmune small-vessel vasculitis affecting lungs and kidneys, typically manifesting with diffuse alveolar hemorrhage and rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis. Microscopic polyangiitis (MPA) has an estimated incidence of approximately 0.5 to 1.8 cases per million per year. It demonstrates a bimodal age…

Glomerulonephritis
Overview Glomerulonephritis is inflammation of the glomerulus. Glomerulonephritis is classified by clinical syndrome/presentation (e.g. nephritic or nephrotic syndrome), histological appearance , or by aetiology. We will divide glomerulonephritis broadly into two broad types: Nephritic glomerulonephritis and nephrotic glormerulonephritis. Classification Two Types of Glomerular disease: Nephrotic Syndrome Nephritic Syndrome DIFFERENCE BETWEEN NEPHROTIC AND NEPHRITIS SYNDROME …

Good places to begin
Explanations learners return to.
Part I – Regulation of Blood Pressure (Hormones)
Explore how hormones regulate blood pressure through mechanisms involving the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, antidiuretic hormone, and atrial natriuretic peptide. This video explains how these hormonal pathways interact to control fluid balance, vascular tone, and overall circulatory stability.
In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) – Overview
Learn the fundamentals of In Vitro Fertilization (IVF), including the step-by-step process, indications, and success factors. This video provides a clear overview of how IVF helps individuals and couples facing infertility achieve pregnancy.
DNA Structure
Master the fundamentals of DNA Structure in this video, covering the double helix, nucleotide pairing, and key molecular features. Essential for exams and genetics basics, this video simplifies DNA’s architecture and biological significance.
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.
Aortic Aneurysm
Overview An aortic aneurysm is a pathological dilatation of the aorta caused by weakening of the arterial wall. It may involve the aortic root, ascending aorta, arch, descending thoracic aorta, thoracoabdominal aorta or abdominal aorta. Most aortic aneurysms are asymptomatic and are discovered incidentally or through screening. Progressive enlargement increases the risk of rupture, dissection,…
