Cukrzycowe

Cukrzycowe is a Polish adjective derived from cukrzyca (diabetes mellitus). It is used to describe things connected with diabetes, including conditions, symptoms, processes and complications. In medical and everyday language it appears in several forms, most commonly cukrzycowy (masculine), cukrzycowa (feminine) and cukrzycowe (neuter or plural).

The term is employed to indicate relation to diabetes in phrases such as powikłania cukrzycowe (diabetes-related complications), stan cukrzycowy (a diabetic state), or diagnostyka cukrzycowa (diabetes diagnostics). It functions as a descriptive qualifier rather than a standalone medical diagnosis. In everyday usage, it also appears in reference to diabetic patients as pacjent cukrzycowy.

Common contexts where cukrzycowe is used include the discussion of complications and clinical features arising from chronic hyperglycemia. Diabetic complications frequently mentioned with this adjective include retinopatia cukrzycowa (diabetic retinopathy), nefropatia cukrzycowa (diabetic nephropathy) and neuropatia cukrzycowa (diabetic neuropathy), as well as increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Management focuses on glycemic control, lifestyle measures, and appropriate medical therapy to reduce the incidence and progression of cukrzycowe powikłania.

Cukrzycowe, together with cukrzyca as a base term, forms part of the standard medical vocabulary describing diabetes and its effects. The adjective emphasizes the link to diabetes and is used across clinical literature, patient information, and health-care discussions.
