Potraviny pro zvláštní výživu-potraviny pro osoby s nesnášenlivostí lepku
Klusová, Petra
The aim of this bachelor thesis is to provide an overview of the topic Food for special nutrition, food for people with gluten intolerance. In the thesis, I focus on the labeling of gluten-free food and its nutritional value in comparison with food containing gluten. Among the gluten-free food we count those which contain more than 10 mg of gliadin per 100 g dry weight. The composition and labeling of gluten-free food is regulated by Commission Regulation (EC) 41/2009. Further, I focus on the origin of celiac disease, its development, symptoms and treatment. Celiac disease is caused by toxic effect of gluten particles, alpha gliadin. The body forms antibodies that affect enterocytes that are present in the lining of the small intestine.
Awareness of general nurses about the treatment of celiak disease
HOLEJŠOVSKÁ, Petra
Abstract Objective: The bachelor's thesis deals with the awareness of general nurses about the treatment of celiac disease. The first chapter of the theoretical part is focused on the digestive system, small and large intestine. The following chapter is devoted to the definition of celiac disease, its history and clarification of the concept of gluten. The next chapter presents the symptoms, diagnosis and treatment of celiac disease and the health risks associated with it. The fourth chapter is devoted to gluten-free foods, their labeling, basic rules for buying gluten-free foods and preparing gluten-free food. The fifth chapter is focused on the contributions of health insurance companies to gluten-free food. The following chapter deals with the hospitalization of a celiac in a medical facility and provides some tips for hospitalization. The last chapter of the theoretical part deals with education, the role of the general nurse in the education of patients with celiac disease, forms of education and lists the most common myths associated with celiac disease. In the empirical part, the first goal was to map the awareness and knowledge of general nurses about celiac disease, its symptoms, manifestations and treatment. The second goal was to map the specifics of nursing care for patients with celiac disease. Method of achieving the goal: The set goals were achieved through a research survey, which was carried out using a qualitative approach, the method of questioning. The method of semi-structured interview was chosen for data collection. The examined group consisted of eight general nurses working in inpatient departments at the Tábor Hospital, a.s. Scientific benefits of the work: The research shows that general nurses have awareness and knowledge of celiac disease, its symptoms, manifestations and treatment, although the answers to some questions were only partial, sometimes inaccurate and in minimal cases incorrect. The identified specifics of nursing care for celiacs can be used in hospital facilities to improve the quality of care provided. Furthermore, the work can be used by people who are interested in obtaining information related to celiac disease and a gluten-free diet. Acquired knowledge and conclusions: The research survey revealed the specifics of nursing care for people with celiac disease, which are mainly associated with the gluten-free diet provided. Furthermore, celiac disease has been found to be incorrectly associated with allergies.
Molecular detection of selected gene polymorphisms related to nutrition (nutrichip validation)
TURKOVÁ, Kateřina
Lactose intolerance is the most common food intolerance in the world. Individuals with lactose intolerance are unable to produce the enzyme lactase in the small intestine, which makes it possible to break down the lactose contained in dairy products. Insufficient lactase production may be genetically determined. Two single nucleotide polymorphisms responsible for the persistence of lactase activity in adulthood have been found in the European population. Celiac disease is one of the autoimmune diseases that mainly affects the mucous membrane of the small intestine. The disease is characterized by intolerance to gliadin, which is part of gluten. Intolerance leads to chronic inflammation of the small intestinal mucosa, leading to chronic diarrhea, fatty stools, vomiting and fatigue. The development of celiac disease is conditioned by the presence of a genetic predisposition. Genetic predisposition is linked to HLA system alleles. Specifically, these are the HLA-DQ2 and HLA-DQ8 haplotypes.
Poptávka po bezlepkových potravinách ve vybrané oblasti
MLEZIVOVÁ, Lucie
This diploma thesis analyses the supply of gluten-free foodstuffs in the stores in the Domažlice area, based on the demand of the gluten intolerant customers. In the theoretical part, the basic terms related to the topic are explained, i.e. business terminology, marketing research and overall issue of celiakia and gluten. The practical part examines and evaluates the width and quality of supply of gluten-free products compared to the demand. The main purpose, that is removing the deficiencies which are perceived by the respondents mentioned in the questionnaire, will be completed by proposal of specific recommendation for the Domažlice area according to the wishes of the sick.
HLA typizace v klinické praxi - využití k testování predispozic k onemocněním autoimunitního typu
VESELÁ, Dominika
Autoimmune diseases require the interplay of internal (genetic) and external (environmental) factors to develop and erupt. The essential genetic factors include HLA alleles, whose carrying is associated with a significant predisposition to the development of a specific autoimmune disease. This Master Thesis deals with the problematics of autoimmune diseases associated with HLA system. The practical part focuses on the examination of predisposing alleles related to celiac disease as one of the most widespread autoimmune disease, which many scientific teams are dealing with, but even in the Czech Republic there are not enough population studies of this disease. Thanks to data from genetic laboratory GENLABS s.r.o. in České Budějovice, ÚHKT and VFN in Prague it was possible to focus on such population study.
The role of innate immunity cells in the pathogenesis of celiac disease
Dáňová, Klára ; Palová Jelínková, Lenka (advisor) ; Černý, Jan (referee)
Celiac disease is an autoimmune disease which occurs in susceptible individuals after ingestion of food containing gluten. Gluten and its monomeric fraction gliadin induce inflammatory damage of the small intestine by activating the immune cells that react strongly to gluten peptides. Gluten peptides have the ability to activate cells of adaptive as well as innate immune system. This work is focused on the production of interleukin (IL)-1 in antigen presenting cells stimulated with peptic gliadin digest. We found that monocytes and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) isolated from blood of celiac patients secrete significantly more IL-1α and IL-1β than cells of healthy donors after stimulation with gliadin digest. The gliadin-induced IL-1β expression is controlled by a signaling cascade that includes MAPK kinase family molecules and transcription factor NF-κB. Moreover, we found that the adaptor proteins MyD88 and TRIF as well as Toll-like receptor (TLR) 2 and 4 play a role in the signaling cascade underlying gliadin-induced IL-1β expression by using murine bone marrow derived dendritic cells (BMDC). The precursor form of IL-1β in gliadin- stimulated PBMC and murine BMDC is maturated by caspase-1. In celiac PBMC the gliadin- induced maturation and secretion of IL-1β depends on the potassium...
Quality of patients life with celiac disease
Bičíková, Michaela ; Křivková, Jana (advisor) ; Vlachová, Marie (referee)
This thesis is dealing with the quality of life of patients with celiac disease. In the theoretical part, I am presenting the characteristics of celiac disease and I am describing its history briefly. For better orientation in the issue, I also joined a description of the anatomy of the small intestine and pathophysiology of celiac disease. In this thesis I am also dealing with incidence of disease, etiology and risk factors participating in the development of celiac disease, symptoms and the different forms, which are related to celiac disease, as well as potential complications and prognosis of celiac disease. An irreplaceable is the role of nurses in diagnosis and targeted screening for celiac disease, therapy and prevention, dispensarization and education of patients with celiac disease about gluten-free diet. I am also describing the problems that patients with celiac disease may encounter in everyday life. Last but not least I am focusing on the general concept of quality of life and also on the quality of life related to health and celiac disease. In the practical part, I am presenting aims and operational hypothesis, methodology of thesis and the characteristics of surveyed population sample. Chapter called the analysis of results includes pie charts showing the questionnaire's items,...
Celiac disease and issues of kid's eating habits in school canteens
Valachová, Aneta ; Váchová, Alena (advisor) ; Kovaříková, Miroslava (referee)
This thesis is focused on catering for pupils with celiac disease in school canteens. The first part, the theoretical one, deals with the disease itself; it gives basic information about the disease, its history, main symptoms, anatomy of healthy digestive system, and the most common health problems occurring when suffering from celiac disease. At the end of the theoretical part diagnosis of the disease is described as well as suitable and unsuitable diet food for celiac and food legislation. The practical part is a survey focused on catering for pupils with celiac disease at selected elementary schools. The survey was conducted in two regions in Valašské Meziříčí and in Prague. In the final part of my thesis special gluten-free menus for schools are suggested. The pedagogical outcome of my thesis is a lecture on celiac disease which can be held at elementary school s to help pupils find out basic information about this disease.
