Strolená, Alena ; Křivánková, Markéta (advisor) ; Nováková, Pavlína (referee)
Title: Possibilities of preventing painful menstruation and the specifics of women in sports. Objectives: The aim of this thesis is to compare methods focusing on exercise eliminatig or alleviating menstrual pain and also describe the specifics of women in sports in more detail. Methods: The main research method of the theoretical part of this diploma thesis is a search of Czech and foreign literature available from the university libraries of the Charles University, the Regional Science Library in Liberec, and then expert articles from the scientific databases Web of Science, Scopus and Pubmed. The practical part uses a method of comparison. Results: Premenstrual syndrome is followed by both emotional and physical changes. The occurrence and intensity of this syndrome is caused by neurohormonal and neurotransmitter changes, but also by the woman's lifestyle (symptoms worsened by stress, poor nutrition). There is also a close connection with painful menstruation (so-called dysmenorrhoea) and improper function of the pelvic floor muscles. Well-known methods focusing on pelvic floor exercises include the Moses Method, Kegel exercises, DNS method, and hormonal yoga. Three studies focused on Kegel exercises showed an improvement in the course of PMS and a decrease of incontinence, with the DNS method...

Chrásková, Anežka ; Carbajo, Anna (advisor) ; Nováková, Pavlína (referee)
The goal of this bachelor thesis is to summarize rehabilitation procedures for children with epilepsy used in the Czech Republic and worldwide. The first part focuses on the general characteristics of children epilepsy from the neurological point of view, its aetiology, patho- physiology, clinical manifestation, diagnosis and treatment specific for paediatric patients. The second part deals with rehabilitation care for children with epilepsy provided in our country and other countries. In the discussion, these rehabilitation procedures are compared and evaluated. Several chapters are devoted to physical activity and cognitive rehabilitation in relation to children epilepsy, which play an essential role in rehabilitation and their importance should not be underestimated. The practical part is a case study of a paediatric patient with epilepsy, in whom we observe the changes and the effect of rehabilitation after neurosurgical removal of the epileptiform lesion. We use the Barthel Index to assess the patient's self-sufficiency, the Gross Motor Fuction Measure (GMFM) to assess his motor function, and the Box and Block test and the Nine-Hole Peg Test (9HPT) to post-assess manual dexterity. The practical part also includes a questionnaire survey on rehabilitation care of paediatric patients with...

Title: The effect of sports massage on changes of muscle contraction after applied load Objectives: The aim of this work was to find out the scale of effect of sports massage on speed of muscle contraction of musculus vastus medialis and musculus vastus lateralis after previous exercise in form of squats and forward lunges. Methods: The research was realized in a form of Crossover design experiment and 7 probands took part in the research. Results were obtained by measuring muscle contraction velocity with tensiomyography method in the lab in department of physiology and biochemistry UK FTVS. We measured height and weight of every proband, after that they were randomly assigned either to control group or experimental group. In the control group we measured the speed of muscle contraction, after that the proband went through exercise in form of squats and forward lunges under certified supervision, then they had 5 minutes of passive rest and after the muscle contraction was measured again. The experimental group had a sports massage instead of 5 minutes rest. Results: The average muscle contraction velocity of musculus vastus lateralis of the control group in the second measurement was 25,47 ± 4,22 ms and the average muscle contraction velocity of the experimental group in the second measurement was...

Title: The use of chewing tobacco among athletes and its effect on the body Objectives: The main objective of this work is to find out the spread of chewing tobacco use among athletes and to identify the reasons that lead to its use. The secondary objective of the work is to describe the negative effect of chewing tobacco on the human body. Methods: I used the questionnaire survey method in my work. I created two questionnaires. One designed for athletes, which consisted of 22 questions. The second was intended for coaches, which consisted of 10 questions. Respondents answered YES/NO questions and they had the option of choosing from one or more answers, and some questions were open- ended. Some questions were mandatory. The questions ranged from general to specific. The questionnaire survey was anonymized and distributed over the Internet. The time required to fill out the questionnaire was approx. 5 minutes. Results: I found that 45.9% of the 61 respondents use chewing tobacco. For almost the majority of respondents, someone else in their vicinity uses chewing tobacco. Among the most common reasons why respondents use chewing tobacco is dependence on the product, this motive was mentioned by 36% of athletes. Most respondents are aware that chewing tobacco can cause cancer (27.8%) and receding...

ANALYSIS OF THE SPACE MANAGEMENT OF SELLING AREAL AND ITS PRODUCT RANGE STRUCTURE
NOVÁKOVÁ, Pavlína
The aim of the work was to analyze and evaluate the present situation of the space management of a selling area, product range structure as well as a shopping atmosphere in a selected department store Prior CR in Ceske Budejovice (Budweiser). On the base of realized facts and theoretical findings, possible steps and actions towards the improvement of the layout of the selling area have been recommended and possible ways of increasing the customers{\crq} satisfaction have been proposed. A newly proposed dispositional layout embodies mainly in the definition of the shopping direction and smoother movement of customers around the retail shop. When comparing with a competitive retail of a similar character by using a point system of subjective evaluation the PRIOR department store was assessed as more competitive within the points gained. On the basis of the questionnaire survey the average customers{\crq} satisfaction taking on 81.67% has been made out. From the summary surveys and results it is obvious that the reconstruction of the first floor of the department store has worked out more than satisfactorily providing a modern, dynamic impression as there had been modern, high-quality materials used in the reconstruction with a view to the assortment of goods to be sold. The disposition of individual facilities and equipment is convenient and suitable. There is a greater number of people who assess the department store positively, the product range structure and a pleasant shopping atmosphere in particular.
