Il libro nasce dalla volonta degli autori di divulgare strumenti e modelli ditrasformazione dellassistenzasanitaria ispirati alla teoria Zero Marginal Costdi Jeremy Rifkin.Il tentativo ambizioso di rendere fruibile e utilizzabile un modello partecipatodella salute, della malattia e della cura, risponde allesigenza dellessereumano di recuperare il rapporto con se stesso e con il mondo che lo circonda.Le politiche ambientali, economiche, sociali e tecnologiche dovranno essereorientate a preservare luomo e lambiente in cui vive. Le ripercussioni inevitabilisulla salute diventeranno sempre piu evitabili utilizzando il nuovo paradigmadella comunicazione, attraverso scelte consapevoli e con il supportoessenziale di internet. Il passaggio da una Medicina Gerarchica Strutturataad una Medicina Capillare e Distribuita, vede lessere umano impegnato nelruolo responsabile di se stesso, e la comunita orientata alla Salute come puntodi arrivo, non piu solo come punto di partenza e come dovere sociale ancorprima che diritto fondamentale.Una svolta visionaria, probabilmente, ma, per riprendere le parole del nostroriferimento intellettuale Its already happening.

El glutamato monosódico (GMS) produce una lesión en la retina de rata neonatal descrita en la literatura, pero no existe concordancia en cuanto a la evolución de la lesión a largo plazo.Nos planteamos si tras la lesion neurotoxica producida por GMS subcutaneo en retina de rata neonatal, las celulas supervivientes tienen capacidad proliferativa para reparar el daño causado. En la retina de rata adulta queremos determinar el momento de la maduracion de la barrera hematorretiniana interna (BHRI), analizar el tipo de lesion retiniana producida tras GMS y agonistas de sus receptores [N-metil-D-aspartato (NMDA) y kainato] via intravitrea, caracterizar la respuesta de la macroglia y microglia, y determinar si existe proliferacion celular para regenerar la lesion. Se realizaron tecnicas inmunohistoquimicas, y posteriormente estudio y fotografiado de los cortes.Las conclusiones del estudio son: 1/ En ratas neonatales no podemos constatar el proceso de regeneracion, 2/ La BHRI esta bien establecida a los 10 dias de edad. 3/ Tanto el GMS, como sus analogos NMDA y kainato via intravitrea, lesionan la retina de la rata adulta, sobretodo las capas internas, y mas severamente tras kainato. Se produce una activacion y proliferacion de la microglia, mas evidente tras kainato, y se activan las celulas de Muller con un aumento en la inmunorreactividad para la glutamina sintetasa. Ademas se evidencia astrocitosis tras GMS y kainato, y no tras NMDA. 4/ En animales adultos tampoco se va a poder constatar el proceso de regeneracion.-----------------Monosodium glutamate (MSG) administered to neonatal rats causes a retinal lesion described in literature. There is no agreement in long term evolution of the injury.We ask if after the neurotoxic retina injury due to MSG, the surviving cells have capacity to proliferate and repairing the damage that were caused in neonatal retina rats. In adult retina rats, we want to determinate the moment of internal blood- retinal barrier (IBRB) maturation, to describe the type of the retinal lesion caused after intravitreal MSG, N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) and kainate, to characterise the response of macroglia and microglia, and to determinate if there is cell proliferation for repairing the damage tissue. Immunhistochemical techniques were made, and the histological sections subsequently were photographed.The conclusions of the study are: 1/ In neonatal rats we cannot prove the process of regeneration; 2/ The IBRB is well established at 10 days old; 3/ Intravitreal MSG, kainate and NMDA causes a retinal lesion, especially in inner layers. Kainate causes more severe injury. We observe activation and proliferations of microglial cells, (with kainate is more striking), activation of Muller cells with increase of glutamine synthetasa inmunoreactivity. We differentiate also astrocytosis after MSG and kainate, nor NMDA. 4/ In adult rats we neither can prove the process of regeneration.

[ES]: La opacificación capsular posterior es una complicación frecuente a largo plazo de la cirugía de catarata, cuyo único tratamiento en la actualidad es la capsulotomía con láser Nd:YAG, procedimiento que no esta exento de riesgos. Planteamos un estudio in vitro en el que pretendemos analizar la capacidad de Bendazac lisina para inhibir la proliferacion de celulas epiteliales del cristalino en cultivo, asi como verificar el grado de toxicidad que dicha sustancia induce sobre el endotelio corneal, para poder establecer su posible utilizacion en cirugia ocular como inhibidor de la opacificacion de la capsula posterior.[EN]: Posterior capsular opacification is a common long-term complication after cataract surgery, the only treatment is currently capsulotomy with Nd: YAG laser, procedure that is not without risks. We propose an in vitro study in which we analyze the capacity of Bendazac lysine to inhibit the proliferation of lens epithelial cells in culture as well as check the toxicity that this substance induce on the corneal endothelium, to establish their possible use in ocular surgery as an inhibitor of posterior capsular opacification.

The moment a baby arrives, everything changes. Not just your routines, your sleep, or your daily priorities. Your mind changes too. The Postpartum Mind: Understanding Your New Emotional Landscape is a compassionate, eye, opening guide for new parents navigating the emotional reality of life after birth. While many books focus on feeding schedules, sleep routines, and baby care, this book explores the powerful internal transformation that happens within you. Because the truth is, the postpartum experience is not just physical. It is deeply emotional, psychological, and personal. One moment you may feel overwhelming love and gratitude. The next moment you might feel anxious, exhausted, uncertain, or strangely alone. You might wonder why your emotions feel so intense, why your thoughts seem different, or why the person you used to be feels slightly out of reach. This book helps you understand why. Written in a warm, reassuring voice, The Postpartum Mind gently walks readers through the emotional landscape of early parenthood. It explores the real mental and emotional changes that occur after birth, helping you make sense of mood swings, identity shifts, intrusive thoughts, anxiety, and the powerful responsibility of caring for a newborn. Inside this supportive guide, you will discover: Why your emotions may feel stronger, faster, and more unpredictable after birth The real reason joy and overwhelm often exist at the same time How hormones, sleep deprivation, and physical recovery shape your mental state Why intrusive thoughts and quiet fears are more common than you think How becoming a parent reshapes your identity and sense of self Why you may feel deeply bonded to your baby yet still feel isolated Practical ways to support your emotional wellbeing during the postpartum period How confidence and emotional stability slowly return as you grow into your new role Rather than offering unrealistic expectations or pressure to feel perfect, this book focuses on something far more helpful: understanding. When you understand what your mind is going through, fear softens. Guilt fades. And the path through early parenthood becomes clearer. This book is for parents who want reassurance that their feelings are normal. It is for those who want honest conversations about postpartum emotions, mental health, anxiety, identity changes, and emotional recovery. Most importantly, it reminds you of something many new parents forget: You are not broken. You are not alone. You are becoming someone new. If you are navigating the emotional reality of the postpartum period and want guidance, reassurance, and practical insight, The Postpartum Mind will help you understand yourself with greater clarity, compassion, and confidence.
