shoulder girdle:肩带(肩胛带),指连接上肢与躯干的骨性结构,主要由锁骨(clavicle)和肩胛骨(scapula)组成,帮助支撑并实现肩部与上肢的广泛活动。
/ˈʃoʊldɚ ˈɡɝːdəl/
The shoulder girdle connects the arm to the trunk.
肩带将上肢与躯干连接起来。
Because the shoulder girdle is highly mobile, injuries can affect both strength and range of motion.
由于肩带活动度很高,受伤可能同时影响力量和活动范围。
shoulder 来自古英语 sculdor,意为“肩部”;girdle 来自古法语 girdel(与“束带、环绕”相关),本义是“腰带/束带”。在解剖学中,girdle 引申为“环状或带状的支撑结构”,因此 shoulder girdle 字面可理解为“肩部的带状支撑结构”。
