Crohn's disease and physical activity
Kšírová, Julie ; Radvanský, Jiří (advisor) ; Slabý, Kryštof (referee)
Bachelor thesis "Crohn's disease and physical activity" deal with Crohn's disease, its clinics, diagnosis and treatment. The next part give notice about some complication of disease which may be treatment by physiotherapy and this part is also about influence of exercise to digestion. This bachelor thesis is going to name positives and negatives of physical exercise on process Crohn's disease. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
Comparison of measurements of the energy expenditure by movement sensors and other standartised methods
Machač, Stanislav ; Slabý, Kryštof (referee) ; Radvanský, Jiří (advisor)
The theoretic part of this dissertation examines the influence of excessive energy intake and low energy expenditure on development of lifestyle diseases. Walking is the most recommended example of basic movement activity and there are emphasised its main health benefits in the work. The theoretical part is further exploring the energy metabolism and focuses especially on the possibility of its measuring. In this work are compared referential methods of monitoring of the energy expenditure to the methods applicable in everyday life. The aim of the practical part is the evaluation of the energy expenditure calculated by algorithms of the Omron HJ-720IT and the SenseWear Armband. As the reference method has been used indirect calorimetry with the use of the analyzer of respiratory gases MedGraphics VO 2000. The monitored activity was the laboratory simulation of walking. The walking has been performed on electronic treadmill, which has generated the predefined speed, gradients and combinations of these factors. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
The Value of "Priessnitz Walking" as older adult exercise: issues of safety, adherence to the regimen, and fitness maintenance
Komínová, Olga ; Bitnar, Petr (advisor) ; Slabý, Kryštof (referee)
This diploma thesis presents a new form of outdoor activity called Priessnitz Walking, which means a connection of nordic walking, cooling limbs in a cold water and a yoga breathing exercises. A physiological grounds of each of its parts has been explained in the theoretical part of the thesis as well as its benefits for older people. Next to this, the thesis concerns about a physiology of aging and the importance of regular physical activity in later life. Our clinical experiment investigated an effect of PW during six-week training programe in older women attending Cardio Club Motol. A significant change in cardiorespiratory function and a positive subjective evaluation of the participates has been shown. Besides, we have found Priessnitz walking to be a save kind of endurance training for older people. A long-term adherance, which we also focused on, was not confirmed.

Influencing energy demands of gait by limiting the variability of parameters of gait stereotype during free walking and walking on a treadmill
Karásková, Renata ; Radvanský, Jiří (referee) ; Slabý, Kryštof (advisor)
The target of the work was to evaluate influence of gait parameters changes on energy expenditure. I evaluated influence of cadence on energy expenditure during floor and treadmill walking. The effect of different cadence from preferable one was significant during floor walking in all cases. During treadmill walking the difference between energy expenditure was indicated only during walking with higher cadence from comfortable one. There were not significant differences by lowering cadence in comparison with comfortable walking. When comparison between floor and treadmill walking was carried out, the significant difference was only during walking with slowercadence. In other cases the difference was not significant.

A comparison of two tests evaluating the autonomous nervous system
Štěpánová, Lucie ; Slabý, Kryštof (advisor) ; Bitnar, Petr (referee)
Diploma thesis "Comparison of two tests evaluating the autonomie nervous system" is foeused on methods of measurement of the autonomie nervous system aetivity (ANS). Its theoretieal part summaries knowledge of anatomy and physiology of ANS and of the heart rate variability (HRV). In experimental part we examined ANS aetivity of a group of 27 healthy people, aged between 20 and 30 years, by means of supine-standing-supine proeedure and 4-seeond exerelse test (4sET). These people also filled up the questionnaires The questionnaire of autonomie funetions (DAF), International Physieal Aetivity Questionnaire (lPAQ) and Eysenek Personality Inventory (EPI). The aim of this study was to evaluate and eompare results of the used tests and confront these results with returns of questionnaires. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
Autonomic nervous system and its relationship to functional disorders of the muscle
Marčišová, Hana ; Čech, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Slabý, Kryštof (referee)
The aim of this paper was to summarize the current knowledge of function and regulation of autonomic nervous system (ANS). We wanted to assess possible involvement of ANS in changes of muscle tension. Sympathetic nervous system affects the sensitivity of somatosenzory afferention, thus effecting the function of whole nervous system. Exists evidence about ANS effect on cutaneous afferents activity as well as muscle spindle afferent activity. Sympathetic modulation of proprioceptive information from muscle spindles may influence α motoneuron excitability. ANS may affect muscle tonus regulation. The selective activation of trigger point (TRP) during heightened muscle sympathetic efferent activity (MSNA) was proved. This supports the idea that the sympathetic nervous system can directly contribute on maintaining of the TRP and myofascial pain syndrome. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
