Alcohol use among college students who belong to the LGBTQ community
Šilhavá, Tereza ; Vacek, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Jandáč, Tomáš (referee)
Background: Being non-heterosexual is still not fully accepted in the Czech Republic and research shows that the stressors that affect community members, negatively impact their mental health and therefore can among others cause substance abuse. Studies to date point to the distinct role of alcohol in this community and its increased use. Aim: The aim of this study was to map and describe alcohol use among university students aged 18-26 years who identify as members of the LGBTQ community. Three hypotheses were established for the realisation of the objective. The hypotheses chosen are as follows: Homosexual men have higher scores on the AUDIT questionnaire than homosexual women. Bisexual people have higher scores on the AUDIT questionnaire than people who identify as homosexual. Respondents who score higher on the AUDIT questionnaire suffer more from internalized homophobia. Methods: The work was carried out as a quantitative research, an online questionnaire which contained 39 items was created. The questionnaire was distributed through social networks and groups that bring together university students and the LGBTQ community. 122 respondents participated in the research. The data collected was processed using Microsoft Excel and further processed in the statistical program Jamovi. Descriptive...

Ecotoxicological screening of diazepam drug
Šilhavá, Tereza ; Jahodář, Luděk (advisor) ; Karlíčková, Jana (referee)
54 Abstract (EN) Charles University in Prague, Pharmaceutical Faculty in Hradec Králové Department of Pharmaceutical Botany and Ecology Candidate: Tereza Šilhavá Consultant: RNDr. Jitka Vytlačilová, Ph.D. Title of Thesis: Ecotoxicological screening of diazepam drug Nowadays, information about the influence of medicinal products on the environment is still missing. We have studied the effect of diazepam tablet (5 mg) and the standard on the following organisms: Brachionus calyciflorus (Rotoxkit F Chronic), Thamnocephalus platyurus (Thamnotoxkit FTM ), Desmodesmus subspicatus (algal growth inhibition test). Brachionus calyciflorus was found out as the most sensitive organism also in comparison with already performed tests within the diploma thesis (Rapidtoxkit, Growth inhibition test - Tetrahymena pyriformis, Growth seeds inhibition test - Sinapis alba). Key words: ecotoxicology, diazepam, Brachionus calyciflorus, Thamnocephalus platyurus, Desmodesmus subspicatus

Self- harm and addiction, their resemblance and differences
Šilhavá, Tereza ; Vacek, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Zachová, Kateřina (referee)
Backround: In certain aspects, self-harm and addiction share similarities. They both mostly occur among juveniles, moreover, there is an increased prevalence of alcohol and substances abuse among the self-harming clients. Aim: The objective of this thesis is to find the similarities and differences between self-harm and addiction. The research questions clarifying the objectives are: In what aspects do self- harm and addiction match? In what aspects do they differ? How does the self-harming and addicted clientele conjoins? Methods: This thesis is theoretical, the data is acquitted from professional articles and studies and was analyzed using comparison and induction. Results: The results show that self-harm has similar course to the course of addiction and this pattern tends to repeat. In both cases, there is an occurrence of strong emotions preceding the activity followed by a strong relieve right after the performance of the act which is later followed by a desire to repeat the behaviour. Ahigher rate of alcohol and other substances abuse has shown among self-harming client, while depression, borderline personality disorder and posttraumatic stress disorder often ranks among the concurrent disorders for both of those behaviours. Pharmacotherapy does not usually apply in treating self-harm...

Ecotoxicological screening of the select drug III
Šilhavá, Tereza ; Karlíčková, Jana (referee) ; Vytlačilová, Jitka (advisor)
Šilhavá Tereza, Ecotoxicological screening of the select drug III, (graduation thesis) Charles University in Prague, Pharmaceutical Faculty in Hradec Králové, Department of Pharmaceutical Botany and Ecology; total number of pages: 61 At the present time, we are increasingly discovering the residue of medical drugs in the environment where they can continue to influence organisms found in nature. In our experiment, we were assessing the ecotoxicity of diazepam found in the medical drug Diazepam 5 mg in comparison with standard diazepam. When evaluating the toxicity, we were using the following organisms: unicellular Tetrahymena pyriformis, nauplii of Thamnocephalus platyurus, and seeds of Sinapis alba. It was revealed that the most sensitive organism was Sinapis alba. At the highest concentration of diazepam tablet, root growth was inhibited by up to 96.4%. Key words: ecotoxicology, diazepam, Sinapis alba, Tetrahymena pyriformis, Thamnocephalus platyurus
