Elder proposed the four principles of LifeCourse Theory in 1998 as: (1) the life course of individuals is embedded in and shaped by historical times and places they experience over their lifetime; (2) the developmental impact of a succession of life transitions or events; (3) lives are lived independently, and social and historical influences are expressed through this network of shared relationships; and (4) individuals construct their own life course through the choices and actions they take within the opportunities and constraints of history and social circumstances.5, Epidemiologist Nancy Krieger proposed the concept of embodiment in 2005, which she defined as referring to how we literally incorporate biologically, the material and social world in which we live, from conception to death, arguing that human biology could not be understood without knowledge of history and individual and societal ways of living.17 Through this lens, human interactions become human biology.

Long-term consequences of ELA are mediated through the neuroendocrine system, with downstream effects on neuroimmune, neuroenteric, and cardiometabolic regulation.41,48 Measuring stress biomarkers could overcome the inherent limitations of subjective questionnaires and difficulties of implementing the ACE checklist in children.42 Cortisol, the end-product of HPA-axis activation, regulates the HPA axis through negative feedback loops, activates the autonomic nervous system, alters intermediary metabolism, modulates physiological and immune responses, and contributes to the memory and learning from traumatic experiences.166,167 Therefore, cortisol is an important biomarker for ELA.168, Plasma, salivary, or urinary cortisol levels reflect acute stress reactivity, but cannot assess chronic stress because of its diurnal cycles, high state reactivity, pulsatile secretion patterns, and robust changes across age, sex, reproductive cycles, and food intake.169,170,171 A systematic review concluded that HCC represents a measure of recent stress, but it included studies from 16 species, which only collected cross-sectional data.172 Measuring acute cortisol responses has significant limitations; repeated sampling over prolonged periods is time-consuming, expensive, and subject to non-compliance.

ELA incorporates broader features beyond the individual experiences identified as ACEs.99 For instance, the association between ACEs and child health was strengthened when researchers also accounted for interpersonal victimization (community violence, property crime, bullying), highlighting the cumulative harm from different forms of trauma.66 ELA can be attributed to factors within all ecological systems affecting individuals, families, communities, or broader societies.50,100 The rich interplay between these systems must be emphasized, since significant ecological factors are not stand-alone but can alter multiple systems at once.

The American Academy of Pediatrics defines toxic stress as the excessive or prolonged activation of physiologic stress response systems in the absence of the buffering protection afforded by stable, responsive relationships.27,28 However, toxic stress depends on the childs complete social ecology, including multiple variabilities in their adverse experiences, environmental conditions, and protective factors.1,31,95,96 Lacey and Minnis44 argued that because all ACEs do not carry the same emotional weight or elicit similar distress levels, binary yes/no responses cannot represent their impact on the child.
