Cukrzycowy

Cukrzycowy is a Polish adjective meaning related to diabetes mellitus (cukrzyca). It is used to describe people, conditions, or phenomena connected with the disease. The form agrees with the noun it modifies, for example pacjent cukrzycowy (diabetic patient), pacjentka cukrzycowa, objawy cukrzycowe, powikłania cukrzycowe.

In medical and clinical language the term appears in phrases such as stan cukrzycowy, objawy cukrzycowe, powikłania cukrzycowe, diagnostyka cukrzycowa or diagnoza cukrzycowa. It can also describe aspects of treatment or care, for example dieta cukrzycowa or terapia cukrzycowa, both indicating diabetes-related regimens or interventions.

The word is derived from cukrzyca (diabetes) with the suffix -owy, and its endings change according to gender and number (cukrzycowy, cukrzycowa, cukrzycowe; cukrzycowi, cukrzycowe, etc.). Its use helps to specify that a person or condition is linked to diabetes, distinguishing it from non-diabetic contexts.

Cukrzycowy is commonly found in both professional medical writing and everyday language when discussing diabetes management, complications, and related healthcare needs. It is part of a broader vocabulary around diabetes, alongside terms like cukrzyca, cukrami, and related dietary or therapeutic concepts.
