摘要: Entrainment to the 24-hour light-dark cycle is of adaptive significance mammals. Human infants are no exception, but some postnatal care habits prevalent in developed countries can interfere with physiological mechanisms underlying circadian synchronization. We describe entrainment fetuses and newborns, common parental behaviors which subject developing system newborn conflicting temporal cues. Improvements proposed may improve synchronization their parents or caregivers.
