Noun phrase complexity in academic written English
Kratochvílová, Pavla ; Malá, Markéta (advisor) ; Dušková, Libuše (referee)
The diploma thesis analyses written academic text. Academic prose is frequently characterized as a highly complex style which is structurally elaborated, contains a large number of subordinate clauses and expresses meaning relations explicitly. However, new research (e.g. Biber & Gray, 2010) shows that complexity of academic writing occurs on the level of noun phrases which often contain extensive premodification and/or postmodification. The thesis studies noun phrase structure in research articles from two disciplines: medicine and sociology. Two articles from each discipline were selected, each yielding 50 complex noun phrases. These 200 examples were analysed with respect to their modification, its form and levels of embedding. The results were compared for both disciplines. The aim of the thesis was to describe complex noun phrase structure and identify its relation to the type of academic discipline. Key words: noun phrase, modification, academic text, sociology, medicine

The influence of botulotoxin application in lower extremities on physiotherapy of children with a spastic form of infantile cerebral palsy
Kratochvílová, Pavla ; Zounková, Irena (advisor) ; Prajerová, Hana (referee)
Cerebral Palsy is one of the most frequent neurodevelopmental illnesses occuring in the child age. Main manifestations of the illness include a disorder of muscle tone leading to the development of spasticity. One of contemporary methods of Cerebral Palsy's therapy has been local application of Botulinum Toxin A. This toxin effects a blockade of neuromuscular transmission on neuromuscular junction and in short term limits excessive contractions of spastic muscles. This thesis deals with the influence of physical therapy of children suffering from Cerebral Palsy following the application of Botulotoxin A and compares physical therapic methods applied in the Czech Republic and abroad.
