My prior questionnaire has applied to 12 male and 29 female adults over 30-69 years old suffering from lumbago fer 6 months at least or having diagnosis of lumbago. I had the following conclusions from physical characteristics and cardiopulmonary capacity of lumbago Patients caused by obesity 1) The rate of lipids in the body was rotated to the maximum heart rate in the male group of lumbago patients (P<0.01). 2) The rate of lipids in the body was related to the maximum intake of oxygen(O2) in the male group of lumbago patients(P<0.01). 3) The maximum heart rae was related to the maximum intake of oxygen in the male group of lumbago patients(P<0.01). 4) The rate of lipids in the body was related to the maximum intake of oxygen in the female group of lumbago patients(P<0.05). 5) The rate of lipids in the body showed no relation to the maximum heart rate in the female group of lumbago patients(P>0.05). 6) The maximum heart rate was related to the maximum intake of oxygen in the female group of lumbago patients(P<0.01). 7) The cardiovascular system showed no relation te the function of the lungs in the male and female groups of lumbago patients(P>0.05) 8) The lung capacity per second of lumbago patients(FEV $1.0\%$) measured less than normal adults. 9) The maximum intake of oxygen(V02max) and heart rate was less than normal adults. Thus I summarized the conclusion so follows: the cardiovascular system of lumbago patients showed no relation to their pulmonary function, and the rate of lipids in the body Showed a correlation with the maximum intake of oxygen but the rate of lipids in the body showed no relation to their pulmonary function.
