Cystic fibrosis (CF) is life-shortening autosomal recessive disease, caused by mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator protein. The most common of CF complications is cystic fibrosis-related diabetes (CFRD). The pathophysiology of CFRD is complex. The best test for screening and diagnosis of CFRD is the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). Insulin therapy is a treatment of choice in CFDR pharmacotherapy. An inseparable element of CFRD therapy is also physical activity and diet.
