There are way too many causes (and therefore symptoms) to list here. But, in general, non-infectious causes includes allergy, poisoning, metabolic disorders, genetic disorders and congenital disorders. Symptoms will ofcourse depend on the causative, which organ system(s) are involved, dosage and time of exposure.

Although this is correct, I think the person wanted a general cause.
2 main general causes are inherited diseases, such as Down's syndrome, and environmental disease, such as lung cancer.
Hope it helped

How do noninfectious disesae spread?
noninfectious diseases dont "spread" as they are "caused by either the environment, nutritional deficiencies, lifestyle choices, or genetic inheritances. Unlike infectious diseases, non-infectious diseases cannot be spread from person to person, although some kinds can be passed down genetically to the children of a carrier."
What is the pathophysiology of a fever?
Fever is caused by infection .noninfectious causes are cancer,collagen vascular diseases,granulomatous diseases etc.Infectious causes releses pyrogens which produce pyrogenic cytokines, and non infectious causes directly stimulates release of pyrogenic cytokines, which go to vessels supplying hypothalamus(lamina ventricularis), where they produce PGE2 from endothelium of blood vessels,which makes thermostat of hypothalamus in a higher level, which causes fever.
Responses of body systems to infectious and noninfectious diseases?
infectious:the skin and other body surfaces act as natural barriers
Which type of disease does a pathogen cause infectious or noninfectious?
