The purpose of the study was to analyse quality of life (QoL) indicators in patients with metabolically healthy obesity (MHO) associated with ≥ 5% weight loss. Material and Methods — The study involved 44 females with MHO (according to the IDF criteria of the metabolic syndrome (MS), 2005) and 33 females with metabolically unhealthy obesity (MUHO) aged 19-59 years. To assess QoL, we used the SF-36 questionnaire (Medical Outcomes Study – Short Form 36). Results — Initially QoL indicators in both groups were not significantly different statistically. The physical component of health (PHsum) in the MHO and MUHO groups averaged 53.9±6.7 & 50.6±6.3 points (p=0.032). The mental component of health (MHsum) averaged 42.1±1.8 & 45.1±1.8 points (p=0.255). The ≥5% decrease in body weight (from the initial body weight) after 6 months led to an increase in the indicators of physical role functioning by 11.6%, vitality by 12.8%, social functioning by 11.2%, emotional role functioning by 11.9%, mental health by 8.8% (p<0.05) in the MHO group, while in the MUHO group the indicators of physical role functioning increased by 24.6%, emotional role functioning by 39.5%, and mental health by 9.2 % (p<0.05). Conclusion — The MHO group is characterized by higher physical component of health, without a statistically significant difference in the indicators of each of the 8 scales of the SF-36 questionnaire. A ≥ 5% decrease in the body mass in patients of both groups is accompanied by the increase in the indicators of QoL.
