Specifics of physiotherapy and preventive exercises in modern pentathletes
Hajduková, Michaela ; Raška, Otakar (advisor) ; Mádle, Kateřina (referee)
This diploma thesis deals with the issue of injury prevention in modern pentathletes. It sets itself the goal of analyzing the current epidemiological situation of injuries in modern pentathlon as well as the current preventive strategies of athletes, including the evaluation of their impact on the incidence of injuries. The nature of the work is a prospective cohort study. A modified version of the validated "Oslo Sports Trauma Research Center questionnaire on health problems" was used. This questionnaire was sent to athletes every week for 10 weeks using the Qualtrics questionnaire software. The study involved 43 probands from 15 countries, ie 4.3% of athletes registered with the UIPM (Union Internationale de Pentathlon Moderne). A total of 34 new injuries and overloads were recorded in 27 probands. The incidence rate of injuries of 3.1 / 1000 h of active sports was found. The most frequently reported segments of injury were the shoulder (14.7%), ankle (14.7%), knee and shin (both 11.8%). The ratio of the lower limb to upper limb injuries was found to be 3: 1. Most injuries were associated with running discipline (46%). The most commonly used injury prevention strategy was stretching, followed by strength training, massages, and consistent warm-up before training. The mean warm-up duration showed...

The relationship between orofacial asymmetries and spinal curves
Hajduková, Michaela ; Raška, Otakar (advisor) ; Pětioký, Jakub (referee)
Key words: temporomandibular joint, temporomandibular joint disorder, malocclusion, scoliosis, moiré, posture, spinal curves Goal: Our attempt is to determine whether subjects with pathologies in the orofacial area (malocclusion, TMJ disorders, jaw movement deviations) have higher prevalence of scoliosis or other spinal deviations than subjects without pathologies in the orofacial area. Methods: In 24 healthy young volunteers (2 men, 22 women; mean age 21,54 years) we measured following parameters of the orofacial area: occlusal parameters in static position (occlusal plane, midline deviation), position of the mandible (overjet, overbite) and also mandible movement parameters (protrusion, maximal mouth opening, mouth opening symmetry). Spinal parameters were measured using Video-Raster-Stereography device: Diers formetric 4D, a moiré topography based computerized system. We measured the scoliosis angle, kyphotic and lordotic angle, rotation of the vertebrae (maximal and mean), trunk inclination, trunk imbalance, fleche cervicale, fleche lombaire and also the amplitude of lateral deviations. To reveal possible relationships between parameters from the orofacial and spinal region Spearman's rank-order correlation or Mann-Whitney U test was performed. Results: Statistical analysis did not reveal any...
