Analysis of the acute effect of cardiac resynchronization therapy on electrocardiogram
Holík, Jiří ; Vítek, Martin (referee) ; Pospíšil,, David (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with the non-pharmacological treatment of symptomatic heart failure, specifically cardiac resynchronization therapy. The introductory research develops the topic as a whole and prepares the author and the reader for the subsequent practical part. The latter focuses on the analysis of selected parameters that undergo acute change after pacemaker implantation. According to the instructions of the assignment, a functional pilot software for QRS complex detection, heart rate calculation and QRS complex dimensioning for some leads has been implemented. Furthermore, the heart rate variability in the frequency domain is analysed and the results are tabulated.

Democracy or Stability in the Maghreb? : Security Policy of the EU towards the Region between 2005 and 2010
Holík, Jiří ; Karásek, Tomáš (advisor) ; Střítecký, Vít (referee)
This PhDr. thesis analyses the EU security policy towards the Maghreb between 2005 and 2010. It does so in order to ascertain to what extent the level of practical policy corresponds with the level of declarations. Also, by using the promotion of democratic governance in the Maghreb countries under the ENP as s case study, the thesis means to challenge the proposition that European Union can be described as a 'Normative Power'. First chapter briefly presents the concept of 'Normative Power Europe'. Following section looks at the European Security Strategy and localizes the primary position of the goal of democracy promotion in the document. Third part gives an overview of the European policy towards the Mediterranean under which EU relations with the Maghreb have been framed. Most attention is paid to the European Neighbourhood Policy. Next chapter examines the level of practical EU policy. It consists of three separate case studies of European policy towards Tunisia, Morocco and Libya between 2005 and 2010. The fifth and final part qualitatively analyses the way four factors (trade, energy, migration and terrorism) contributed to the structuring of relations of Tunisia, Morocco and Libya with Spain, France and Italy. The thesis arrives at the conclusion that while at the declaratory level the EU...

Political Systems of Malaysia and Singapore Through the Prism of Hybrid Regime Theory
Holík, Jiří ; Mlejnek, Josef (advisor) ; Romancov, Michael (referee)
This graduate thesis comparatively analyzes key features of political systems of Malaysia and Singapore using the chosen concepts of hybrid regimes theory. In the first part, main conceptualizations of this theory are presented to be later critically assessed. What follows is a thorough comparative analysis of political systems of the countries in question using the concept of "chain of democratic choice" introduced by Andreas Schedler as a framework for analysis. Subsequently, operationalized concept of competitive authoritarianism by Steven Levitsky and Lucan Way is applied. The outcome of the analysis is the classification of Malaysia as competitive authoritarian while Singapore is classified as a case of hegemonic electoral authoritarian regime. As far as theory is concerned, the thesis argues that although hybrid regimes themselves cannot provide for a unique mid-range regime type, some concepts connected to the paradigm offer an appropriate tool for the study of nondemocratic regimes.
