Introduction. Currently obesity is considered as a chronic, relapsing, multifactorial neurobehavioral
disease, in which an increase in body fat contributes to the dysfunction of adipose tissue and the
biomechanical effect of adipose tissue on surrounding tissue with development of metabolic and
psychosocial health effects. It has been proven that bariatric surgery significantly reduces the level of
pro-inflammatory senility-associated secretory proteins (SASPs), weight reduction increases telomeres
length and declines their oxidative degradation (lowering of oxidative stress in telomeres), miR10a_5p,
which is post-regulated with increasing of biological age, decreased after surgery, what suggests that
bariatric surgery abated the premature aging phenotype. It is of big interest to evaluate comorbidity
conditions in people with obese class III after the intervention of intragastric balloons (IGB) and
laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG), which are lead to weight loss. Methods. A total of 40 patients (32
female and 8 male aged 19–55 years were considered for the study. Comorbidity was assessed by the
structure and severity of diseases associated with obesity according to the recommendations of
Nedogoda (2016). Cardiometabolic disease staging scale of Guo (2015) was used to assess the metabolic
health. Endovisual surgery-LSG was performed (n=40) on a laparoscopic set and instruments of Karl
Storz, GMBH & CoKG (Germany). The spherical intragastric balloon (IGB) was installed according to the
manufacturer's method (BIB ™ System Intragastric Balloon from Allergan Inc. USA) using a GIF-1T20
Olympus gastrointestinal fibroscope (Japan). Results. Evaluation of the obesity phenotype, a completely
metabolically healthy phenotype was not detected in any case. Nowadays, the opinion about the
usefulness of the clinical concept of the metabolic syndrome (MS) is disputed, because it has not been
convincingly proven its predictive value exceeds that for individual components. Conclusion. Obese
class III is associated with dyslipidemia/hypertriglyceridemia in 85%; with type 2 diabetes mellitus
(DM2)/prediabetes in 50%; with arterial hypertension (AH) in 45%; and with non-alcoholic fatty liver
disease (NAFLD) in 35% of cases. Therefore, two-stage treatment by IGB and LSG make it possible to
improve the performance on the Cardiometabolic disease staging scale, achieving zero cardiometabolic
risk in 35% of patients, and in rest of patients move to a lower stage.

INTRODUCTION
Currently, on the recommendation of the American Society for Metabolic & Bariatric Surgery Updates (2014-
2015), obesity is considered as a “chronic, relapsing, multifactorial neurobehavioral disease, in which an increase
in body fat contributes to the dysfunction of adipose tissue and the biomechanical effect of adipose tissue on
surrounding tissue with development of metabolic and psychosocial health effects [1, 2]. The cost of medical
care for people with obesity is significantly higher than for people with normal weight. So, for people with obese
class I the cost of medical care is 14% more compared to those of normal weight, then for persons with obese
class III - the cost is 77.1% more; comorbid pathology in obesity has a strong influence on these data [3].
Comorbidity - a combination of pathological conditions that worsen the patient's prognosis - the risk of
death from competing diseases, the Charlson index allows to quantify this risk. According to a study that
included 514,350 individuals [3], the Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) in non-obese individuals was 1.84; with
overweight - 2.04; with obese class I - 2.29; class II - 2.7; class III - 3.06, respectively. The spectrum of CCI
diseases includes ischemic heart disease, myocardial infarction, cerebrovascular diseases, peripheral vascular
diseases, connective tissue diseases, chronic lung diseases, ulcers, chronic liver diseases, dementia, diabetes,
hemiplegia, kidney diseases, tumors, leukemia, lymphoma, metastatic tumors, and immunodeficiency syndrome
Diseases, traditionally associated with obesity, are arterial hypertension (AH), depression, type 2 diabetes
mellitus (DM2), non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), sleep apnea [5-8]. Comorbidity with obesity also
