This model views any deviations from "normal" development as a disorder, requiring public policy programs and interventions for early prevention (Dahl 2004); however, an evolutionarily informed perspective views risky adolescent behavior through a very different lens.
Variables known to increase the risk for development of a disorder (i.e., SES, SBD) also increased the risk for non-participation.
Furthermore, it has been shown that genetic predisposition may confer resilience to the development of a disorder following childhood trauma [ 24, 26].
Indicated prevention, as opposed to universal prevention (aimed at the general population regardless of risk status) or selective prevention (aimed at high-risk groups), aims to counter the onset or development of a disorder in those who already have symptoms.
Mass spectrometry based proteomics is the first step to study the changes that proteins undergo as a consequence of fibrotic disorder, whether the changes are in protein levels (e.g. differential protein expression), temporal (following the development of a disorder), or on the post-translational level (e.g. phosphorylation) as compared to the control, healthy tissue or plasma.
