Abstract
This paper reviews the causes of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) from a perspective other than traditional clinical pathology. We look at social factors that could arouse stressful feelings, and could further lead to cardiovascular diseases. Major social factors including job stress, daily hassles, life events, social inequity and trauma are covered in our review. This paper also discusses potential interventions which could be taken by environmental professionals to create dynamism within the existing static structures so as to eventually eradicate the causes of mental stress and ameliorate the quality of life for urban dwellers.
