TINTIN: a Tool for INcremental INTegrity checking of Assertions in SQL Server

We present TINTIN, a tool to perform efficient integrity checking of SQL assertions in SQL Server. TINTIN rewrites each assertion into a set of standard SQL queries that, given a set of insertions and deletions of tuples, allow to incrementally compute whether this update violates the assertion or not. If one of such queries returns a non empty answer, then the assertion is violated. Efficiency...

A new companion of elongating RNA Polymerase II: TINTIN, an independent sub-module of NuA4/TIP60 for nucleosome transactions

Multiple factors are involved in the elongation stage of transcription regulation to ensure the passing of RNA polymerases while preserving appropriate nucleosome structure thereafter. The recently reported trimeric sub-module of NuA4 histone acetyltransferase complex involved in this process provides more insight into the sophisticated modulation of transcription elongation.

Acquired growth hormone deficiency and hypogonadotropic hypogonadism in a subject with repeated head trauma, or Tintin goes to the neurologist.

We describe the unique case of a public figure who is well known for having delayed pubertal development and statural growth. We believe we have discovered why Tintin, the young reporter whose stories were published between 1929 and 1975, never grew taller and never needed to shave.

They are more effective and imaginative than the simple words. Onomatopoeic words or expressions attach us to the real nature and to our inner senses. This study aims at familiarity with on...
