Reseña del libro "AWAKENING AT BIRTH (en Inglés)"
What Awakens the Newborn Brain?What if birth is more than the onset of breathing? What if it also provides biological signals that help awaken the newborn brain? And what if disrupting those signals can affect survival and influence neurodevelopment long after birth?In Awakening at Birth, veterinarian and scientist Dr. John Madigan takes readers from the foaling stalls of Northern California to a Stanford Medical School study involving human newborns. The journey begins with a puzzling condition in newborn foals-animals that are alive yet seem disconnected from their mothers and surroundings.Madigan and his team at the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine discovered that these foals retained high levels of the sedating neurosteroids present during life in the womb. After all, biology's first rule for a fetal foal is simple: No galloping in the womb. This discovery led to a simple treatment that helps some affected foals awaken-and to a new way of thinking about birth, the brain, and the transition from fetal unconsciousness to newborn awareness.For decades, these disconnected newborns were termed "dummy foals" and were believed to suffer from oxygen-deprivation brain injury. Madigan discovered that many could awaken dramatically when researchers recreated specific birth-like signals.Through memorable clinical stories and emerging scientific evidence, Dr. Madigan explains in understandable terms how the brain hormones, called neurosteroids, help keep the fetus unconscious in the womb and how their influence changes at birth. He explores the importance of maternal contact after delivery and considers what discoveries in newborn animals may teach us about human birth, neonatal care, and long-term neurodevelopment. In Awakening at Birth, you will discover:How neurosteroids help maintain fetal unconsciousness-and how their influence changes at birth.What newborn foals revealed about the transition from life in the womb to awareness after delivery.How an unexpected clinical observation led to the Madigan Squeeze Procedure, now used by foal caregivers worldwide.Why birth canal pressure and early skin-to-skin contact may be important biological signals.How discoveries in veterinary medicine are opening new questions about human newborns, long-term neurodevelopment, and possibly conditions such as autism.
