Morphology
ketoacidosis-resistant + diabetes
The phrase is compositionally built: adjective 'ketoacidosis-resistant' means 'resistant to ketoacidosis' and combines with 'diabetes' to yield 'diabetes that is resistant to ketoacidosis.' This follows a straightforward adjective+noun pattern and is derivable from the constituents (though the individual medical term 'ketoacidosis' is technical and likely unknown to typical B1 learners).
Etymology
Ketoacidosis-resistant diabetes gets its name from the phrase parts: ketoacidosis, a serious state where the body makes acids because it cannot use sugar properly, and resistant, meaning that problem usually does not happen. So the name helps you remember this is a milder kind of diabetes where the dangerous acid build-up usually 'does not happen' and can often be managed with diet and pills.
