髂胫束的姿势功能。

Ann R Coll Surg Engl. 1979 Jul;61(4):271-80.

A new definition of the iliotibial tract is made. Its anatomical and physical characteristics are summarised and its known functions discussed. The various postures adopted by standing Man are looked at and one resting posture is closely analysed. Hence a new role is proposed for the iliotibial tract. In the hip bone a new bony effect of the iliotibial tract is proposed. The presence of this structure is traced in the fossil record and linked to the anthropological evidence of upright posture.

对髂胫束做出了新的定义。总结了其解剖学和物理特征，并讨论了其已知功能。研究了站立的人所采取的各种姿势，并对其中一种休息姿势进行了详细分析。因此，提出了髂胫束的一个新作用。在髋骨中，提出了髂胫束的一种新的骨效应。在化石记录中追踪了这种结构的存在，并将其与直立姿势的人类学证据联系起来。
