Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of mortality worldwide, and its pathogenesis is influenced by a complex interplay of genetic, lifestyle, and psychosocial factors. This research article aims to explore the intricate relationship between psychosocial factors and CVD, shedding light on how mental and emotional well-being can significantly impact heart health. Through an extensive review of existing literature and empirical evidence, we delve into the mechanisms linking psychosocial factors to CVD, emphasizing the role of chronic stress, depression, anxiety, social isolation, and personality traits. Additionally, we discuss potential interventions and strategies for clinicians and individuals to mitigate these psychosocial risk factors and reduce the burden of CVD.
