Mortality for Certain infectious and parasitic diseases in the Czech Republic
Nguyen, Thuy An ; Hulíková Tesárková, Klára (advisor) ; Fialová, Ludmila (referee)
This work deals with a group of diseases and causes of deaths called Certain Infectious and parasitic diseases, defined by International Classification of Diseases. These diseases are not the most common causes of death in the Czech Republic. It would seem infectious diseases are now under control. However, in recent years the number of deaths has grown and there are new threats that should not be underestimated. Therefore the work includes a chapter on current topics (antibiotic resistance, bioterrorism, emerging diseases). Part of this work also deals with the theoretical aspects of the emergence and spread of diseases, vaccination as an effective weapon against infection. The aim of this bachelor's thesis is to describe the basic trend of mortality in the years 1994-2011 in the Czech Republic, where the number of deaths from Certain infectious and parasitic diseases has increased. The work showed mortality increased mainly in older age groups. It was also found that the bacterial diseases (especially other Septicaemia) are behind this increase. At the end effect of the revision of International Classification of Diseases and changes in coding practice on mortality for infectious diseases were discussed.

The specifics of Argentina in mortality from infectious and parasitic diseases in the context of Latin America Abstract This work deals with mortality from infectious and parasitic diseases in Argentina at the turn of the 20th and 21st centuries. During this period, there was a high level of mortality from infectious diseases in Argentina, which is not common in countries where an epidemiological transition has already taken place. This thesis tries to theoretically explain the higher level of mortality from infectious diseases by describing the situation of infectious diseases in the Latin American region. It deals with the course of the demographic revolution and the epidemiological transition in the Latin American region, which had a significant impact on changes in mortality and describes the development of the incidence of specific infectious diseases in Argentina. The theoretical part is followed by an analytical explanation of mortality from infectious and parasitic diseases using the resulting indicators of mortality tables and decomposition methods used in the work. The main aim of this work was to find out what influenced the high and almost constant level of mortality from infectious diseases in Argentina at the turn of the century. The analysis was also made for selected Latin American...
