Your use of the word "attack" along with the word "non-communicable" makes me wonder whether you really mean what you seem to mean. Micro-organisms attack the body, but they're communicable. Perhaps you meant to say "affect the heart"...? There are many non-infectious cardiac diseases. These include congenital anomolies such as Tetralogy of Fallot, coronary artery disease, left and right ventricular dysfunction (also known as heart failure), arrhythmias such as atrial fibrillation, connective tissue diseases such as amyloidosis, and many others. Also, there are diseases which are non-cardiac but which affect the heart's function. These include pulmonary hypertension, vasculitis, anxiety, drug abuse, and many others.
