You can see the cecum. The scope will not go in. Pushing only makes a loop.
Stop pushing. Turn the patient onto the right side. A view from above is not an exam of the cecum.

I have had many embarassing moments as a young adult, but nearly nothing as an adult, except this person as the leader of my country. Any true empathetic educated leader would listen to the students, overhaul the medical education exams, improve the curriculum, stop spreading pseudoscience into schools, colleges and institutes, remove the incompetent minister, compensate families of students who died by suicide. Seriously, no one really cares about these silly social media metrics, dumdums.
The Times of India has reported on the papaya extract in chemotherpay study from Tata Memorial Cancer Hospital (TMH) in a very clear and simple manner. Thanks to Eshan Kalyanikar for reaching out to me and other domain experts.
Unlike another major media (which I will not be sharing here) who interviewed only the "study authors" - who went full on ad-hominem against me (indirectly calling me anti-national), this report from @TOIIndiaNews breaks down the issue clearly and why it matters.
If you read this report, at one point, the main author and corresponding author tells the reporter that they have strong evidence to believe that platelet counts improve on Day 4 (give or take one day) - what does this even mean? The study's primary end-point was platelet count improvement on Day 7. But they reported it on Day 4 and now saying give or take one day?
This is why Expression of Concern was raised by the journal. Indirectly abusing me on newsmedia does not change post publication peer review system.
Here's the link to read the full report:

Couinaud segments map the liver into 8 functional units, each with its own portal inflow, hepatic venous outflow, and biliary drainage.
Know the segment before you interpret imaging, plan resection, or discuss vascular anatomy with surgery.
