A Fast and Efficient Estimation of the Parameters of a Model of Accident Frequencies via an MM Algorithm by Issa Cherif Geraldo, Edoh Katchekpele, Tchilabalo Abozou Kpanzou

“…We design a minorization-maximization (MM) algorithm and an accelerated MM algorithm to compute the maximum likelihood estimates of the parameters. We illustrate, through simulations, the performance of our proposed MM algorithm and its accelerated version by comparing them to Newton-Raphson (NR) and quasi-Newton algorithms. …”

Management of Metachronous Bilateral Testis Cancer in a Patient with Pre-B Cell ALL by Kelly T. Harris, Shakil A. Shaikh, Mark W. Ball, Mohamad E. Allaf, Phillip M. Pierorazio

“…We discuss the management of bilateral testis masses in a young patient with a hematologic malignancy as well as the role of immunosuppressive chemotherapy in developing a second cancer. This case illustrates the importance of recognizing bilateral testicular cancer early, as well as the importance of follow-up care in oncology patients including routine measurements of tumor markers. …”

Hemoptysis and Unilateral Pulmonary Infiltrates due to Severe Acute Mitral Regurgitation from Papillary Muscle Rupture by Joanna Wieckowska, Nicholas Diloreto, Shannon Hood, Isabella Chojnacki, Dalia Zakri

“…We present a case of a patient presenting with dyspnea and hemoptysis without hemodynamic instability along with right-sided infiltrate on chest radiography a few days after an acute inferolateral STEMI who was found to have posterior papillary muscle rupture resulting in acute mitral regurgitation. Our case illustrates that the aforementioned symptoms and signs should raise concern for acute mitral regurgitation and prompt cardiac evaluation in the appropriate clinical setting as they may mimic acute pulmonary processes and delay critical diagnosis and treatment.…”

An Unusual Case of a Tonsillolith by John Chan, Mamun Rashid, Yakubu Karagama

“…This may be further supplemented with investigations such as plain radiography and computer tomography. Here, we illustrate a case with risk factors of oropharyngeal cancer and a history of fish bone impaction in the throat that was initially diagnosed as a “tonsillar foreign body” which turned out eventually to be a large tonsillolith.…”
