Addictive substances and Visual Art
Bobková, Simona ; Fišerová, Zuzana (advisor) ; Raudenský, Martin (referee)
This diploma thesis discusses the topic of addictive substances and their influence on artistic creation. In the theoretical part, I first focus on the search for their connection in history on various artifacts that could be found. Among the most common are cave paintings, which I also list in my thesis, as well as sculptures and illustrations. Subsequently, I define the distribution of the types of individual addictive substances that are most often associated with visual artists, and which I describe later. These include alcohol, cannabis drugs, stimulants, psychotropic substances, and opiates. Furthermore, I characterize visual artists who were influenced by addictive substances in their work at that time. I present exhibitions that have a certain connection with this topic, and in the last line of my work, I focus on the preventive component of the relationship between school and family. In the didactic part, together with the pupils of the eight-year high school, we deal with the issue of these substances and realize an art series with the name that this diploma thesis also bears, i.e. "Addictive Substances and Visual Arts." The thematic series contains five creative tasks that aim at a primarily preventive goal. The research part, the method of which is semi-structured qualitative research,...

The lifestyle of fitness-minded people - a case study
ROHLÍČKOVÁ, Daniela
The bachelor's thesis is focused on a healthy lifestyle, specifically for people who have chosen the focus of fitness as their life belief. A healthy lifestyle has a positive effect on our physical and mental health, and it has recently become very popular, especially due to being frequently propagated on social networks. The theoretical part deals with basic concepts inextricably linked to lifestyle, but also with it's negative effects on our health, which can be various forms of addiction such as alcohol, drugs or doping with its dark side. The practical part focuses on qualitative research in the form of an interview with a man and a woman and compares their physical and psychological state. The main goal of this work is to find out what effect a fitness lifestyle has on the life of women and men of productive age, which I am trying to achieve with the interview I mentioned.

The impact of synthetic chelators from the group of 4-acylpyrazole-5-ones on alcohol dehydrogenase
Sobolová, Zuzana ; Mladěnka, Přemysl (advisor) ; Jirkovský, Eduard (referee)
Charles University Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Department of Pharmacology & Toxicology Student: Zuzana Sobolová Supervisor: Prof. Přemysl Mladěnka, Pharm.D., Ph.D. Consultant: Marcel Hrubša, MS.c. Title of diploma thesis: The impact of synthetic chelators from the group of 4-acylpyrazole-5-ones on alcohol dehydrogenase Inhibitors of alcohol dehydrogenase play a key role in the treatment of poisoning caused by methanol, ethanol, ethylene glycol, and their toxic metabolites. Such treatment can therefore be considered as life-saving. In clinical practice, a single substance, fomepizole, is used. This thesis is aimed at investigation of the effect of eleven experimental chelators from the 4- acylpyrazol-5-ones group on equine and yeast alcohol dehydrogenases, and the possible definition of structural features that would be the most suitable for interaction with this enzyme. Due to the ability of these substances to chelate zinc ions, it is believed that they could inhibit an enzyme that has a zinc molecule in the structure. The measurement itself is based on principle of increase in absorbance during the enzymatic reaction, which is caused by the formation of NADH. This measurement is relatively simple, efficient and, due to used kinetic method, also less susceptible to be affected by...

Alcohol intake of athletic university students
HRDLIČKOVÁ, Vanda
The topic of my bachelor's thesis is "alcohol intake of athletic university students." The rate at which alcohol is broken down depends on a number of physiological differences, such as gender or the proportion of muscle and fat tissue. Despite its certain protective effects, consumption cannot be recommended - especially in combination with sport. In the practical part, a quantitative method of data collection was used. The research group consisted of 128 university students aged 18-30. The aim was to compare the different alcohol consumption of athletic and non-athletic students. The results of both groups were very similar. The most frequently chosen option was "I consume alcohol only occasionally (about twice a month)", as it was chosen by 40% of sports and 33.3% of non-sports respondents. This was followed by consumption 3-5 times a month, which was chosen by 36% of athletes and 41% of non-athletes. There was a higher frequency of consumption (several times a week) in the case of 18% of athletes and 16.7% of non-athletes. The last 6% of sports and 9% of non-sports respondents consume alcohol every day. Another aim was to examine the degradation of alcohol from the system. I tested 20 students (10 athletes, 10 non-athletes) by using an alcohol tester. Athletic men eliminated a dose of 40 ml of 34% distillate within 30 minutes. Non-athletes in double time, i. e. 60 minutes. All women eliminated the same dose of alcohol within a similar period of time (60-105 minutes), regardless of the level of their physical activity. All participants also provided a weekly dietary record, including alcohol consummation. After entering dietary records into the Nutriservis program, I came to an average energy intake and the representation of individual nutrients, which can also affect the degradation itself.
