ABSTRACT
@#Objective - To analyze the prevalence and influencing factors of work related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) Methods among painters in the manufacturing industry. A total of 639 painters from one shipbuilding enterprise, one automobile manufacturing enterprise and three wooden furniture manufacturing enterprises in Guangdong Province were selected as the research subjects using typical sampling method. The Chinese version of Musculoskeletal Disorders Questionnaire was Results used to investigate the prevalence of WMSDs in the past one year, and the influencing factors were analyzed. The total prevalence rate of WMSDs among painters in the manufacturing industry was 37.4%. The prevalence of WMSDs in different vs vs P industries from high to low was shipbuilding, automobile and furniture manufacturing (50.0% 38.7% 29.0%, <0.01). The prevalence of WMSDs in different parts of the body from high to low was neck, ankle/foot, shoulder, low back, upper back, knee, vs vs vs vs vs vs vs vs P hand/wrist, hip/leg and elbow (20.7% 19.2% 17.4% 15.8% 14.1% 13.8% 13.5% 9.5% 6.6%, <0.01). Multivariate logistic regression analysis results showed that working in uncomfortable postures was a risk factor for neck, ankle/ P P foot and shoulder WMSDs (all <0.01); long time head turning was a risk factor for neck and shoulder WMSDs (both <0.05); P overweight and obesity, and bending and turning frequently at the same time were risk factors for ankle/foot WMSDs (all <0.05); P adequate rest time was a protective factor for neck and ankle/foot WMSDs (both <0.01); participated in physical exercise more P than once a week was a protective factor of neck and shoulder WMSDs in painters (all <0.05), after excluding the influence of Conclusion confounding factors.

ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the interaction between insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) and thyroid hormone receptor α1 (TRα1) and the modulatory effect of IGFBP-3 on transcription of the thyroid hormone responsive gene.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The interaction between IGFBP-3 and TRα1 was detected with glutathione-S-transferase pull-down method, co-immunoprecipitation, fluorescence resonance energy transfer test. The cellular distribution of these two proteins was observed by confocal laser scanning microscopy. The effect of IGFBP-3 on the growth hormone promoter activity stimulated by triiodothyronine (T3) was determined by dual-luciferase reporter assay.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>IGFBP-3 interacted with TRα1 both in vivo and in vitro. IGFBP-3 and TRα1 were shown to co-localize in the nucleus of HEK-293 cells. The overexpressed IGFBP-3 inhibited the growth hormone promoter activity stimulated by T3 (P<0.01).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>IGFBP-3 interacts with TRα1 and inhibits T3 responsive gene transcription. This finding further confirms the insulin-like growth factor-independent role of IGFBP-3 in the nucleus.</p>
