Prevention of the Selected Infectious Diseases in the Lay public
KULHÁNKOVÁ, Veronika
The bachelor thesis is devoted to the prevention of selected infectious diseases in the general public. It focuses on three diseases with frequent occurrence in the South Bohemia Region - tick-borne encephalitis, viral hepatitis and salmonellosis. The work is divided into a theoretical and a empirical part. In the theoretical part we discuss the characteristics of infectious diseases, prevention, the role of the nurse in the context of prevention and the selected diseases themselves, already listed. In the empirical part the aim was chosen - to map the prevention of selected infectious diseases in the general public. Based on this objective, five hypotheses were chosen. H1: There is a statistically significant relationship between opinion on vaccination and gender. H2: There is a statistically significant relationship between attitude towards prevention of selected infectious diseases and education. H3: There is a statistically significant relationship between adherence to viral hepatitis prevention and age. H4: There is a statistically significant relationship between adherence to tick-borne encephalitis prevention and age. H5: There is a statistically significant relationship between adherence to salmonellosis prevention and age.

Serological overviews- history, present, future
ŠOJSLOVÁ, Denisa
In the theoretical part, I dealt with the meaning of serological surveys, their history, the last survey from the year 2013, and the future of surveys. Then I described the advantages of vaccination and different vaccination types. Last but not least, I talked about tick-borne encephalitis. After that, I am dealing with the history of this illness, its occurrence and spreading, the clinical process, and diagnosis of the illness. The purpose of my bachelor thesis is to prove antidotes against the tick-borne encephalitis, as with people that were vaccinated, as well as with those that had already suffered this illness. The practical part turns to the diagnosis of antidotes against tick-borne encephalitis virus, using the ELISA method. Laboratory results were statistically processed into graphs. Blood samples were being tested from April to October 2019. From these samples, we learned that more women were tested than men in the age group of 30 to 39. Results of my work confirm the general fact that the tick-borne encephalitis is a seasonal illness. Most samples are being tested during summer months, which is related to a higher activity of ticks during this season. Two hypotheses were suggested. The first hypothesis related to the impact of age on the amount of antidotes after having suffered tick-borne encephalitis. The second hypothesis related to the impact of age on the amount of antidotes after vaccination.

Protilátky v terapii klíšťové encefalitidy
NEDVĚDOVÁ, Lenka
Tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) is a serious live threatening disease caused by tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV). The therapy is based on administration of non-specific treatment with anti-inflammatory drugs or IVIg (including non-specific antibodies). Application of non-specific antibodies may present a certain level of risk - maily of developing antibody dependent enhancement. We have developed and characterized monoclonal antibodies targetting non-structural protein 1 (NS1) of TBEV in order to assess its potential in TBEtreatment and diagnostics.

Patogeneze a klinické aspekty infekce virem klíšťové encefalitidy
ELSTEROVÁ, Jana
This thesis contributes to knowledge about the combined impacts of the pathogenesis of the tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) and the immunopathogenesis of the host on the clinical course of acute tick-borne encephalitis (TBE). The thesis further focuses on the process of TBEV neuroinvasion and the utilization of the host's immune products as potential therapeutic interventions.

Antiviral vaccination - tick borne encephalitis virus
Solarová, Pavlína ; Drda Morávková, Alena (advisor) ; Janštová, Vanda (referee)
Tick borne encephalitis is by one of the most severe disease of central nervous system. Agent of this disease is tick-borne encephalitis virus, which is transmitted mainly by tick. Clinical picture of TBE is considerably different and varied in individuals - from quite infection without symptoms up to severe cerebro-spinal meningitis, in such cases attacked persons by this virus leave hospital with whole-life handicap. We can prevent this disease by inoculation. We can see it in the neighboring Austria, where TBE almost became extinct because 90% of population is vaccinated. Vaccines are commercially available from 1979. Nevertheless only 17% population is vaccinated against TBEV. The reason for it could be fact that insurance companies do not provide the vaccines as well as not very effective health education. One of possibilities how we can this tendency reverse would be higher awareness of pupils at schools. In school educational programs there is contained prevention of viral disease, especially in general biology, biology of viruses and education to health.

Tick-borne encephalitis risk assessment based on classification of vegetation from remote sensing data
Červená, Lucie ; Potůčková, Markéta (advisor) ; Pavelka, Karel (referee)
Tick-borne encephalitis risk assessment based on classification of vegetation from remote sensing data Abstract The main aim of this thesis has been to find out how to classify various categories of forest vegetation with a different risk of exposure to the tick-borne encephalitis based on the Landsat imagery. The legend used here is derived from the one used in the projects by Daniel, Kolář, Zeman (1995) and Daniel, Kolář, Beneš (1999) but has been reduced to only five classses with no overlaps in their definitions (I. coniferous stands, II. mixed stands, III. young deciduous stands and stand ecotones with a highly heterogeneous structure, IV. deciduous stands with a homogeneous structure, V. deciduous stands with a heterogeneous structure). The supervised classification with the Maximum Likelihood Classifier has been used on the Landsat imagery from various seasons. Difficulties concerned with the presence of clouds and varying Sun elevation across the imagery had to be adressed in the course of the work. The training sites and the control points have been defined by the field research and interpretation of the relevant orthophotomaps and Landsat imagery in 5-4-3 RGB composite. The mask of the forest has been created on the ZABAGED data basis. The time horizon of 2006 - 2010 has been the primary focus....

Case report of physiotherapeutic care about patient with diagnosis after Meningoencephalitis.
Hanušová, Barbora ; Neuwirthová, Svatava (advisor) ; Procházková, Marie (referee)
Title: Case report of physiotherapeutic care about patient with diagnosis after Meningoencephalitis. Summary: This thesis consists of two parts - a general part and a special part. The general part summarizes theoretical basis of the disease. It explains the term of meningoencephalitis and represents its epidemiology and etiopatogenesis, clinical marks, possible complications of the disease, its diagnostics and cure. The special part contains case report of physiotherapy care for a patient after meningoencephalitis. The case report consists of initial musculoskeletal assessment of the patient, performance of the therapeutic units and assessment of the effectiveness of the therapy. Case report was worked out on the rehabilitation clinic Na Malvazinkách in Prague at the time of continuous bachelor's practice. Keywords: psysiotherapy, meningoencephalitis, tick-borne encefalitis, non-infected brain inflammation, viral diseases of the central nervous system.

Tick-Borne Diseases - Knowledge of High School Students
Vlček, Karel ; Pavlasová, Lenka (advisor) ; Ehler, Edvard (referee)
Tick-borne diseases are caused by a group of pathogenic microorganisms which are transmitted between animal and human population by vector which is most frequently tick. Evaluation of danger and perils of these diseases is important due to prevention and monitoring of current situation development. The most common tick-borne diseases in the Czech Republic are borreliosis, tick-borne encephalitis and ehrlichiosis. Rarely can we encounter bartonellosis, babesiosis, rickettsiosis and tularemia. All these diseases can have serious consequences and in critical cases they can result in death of the infected person. One of the basic and the most important of preventive measures which lower the risk of the infection by any tick-borne disease is prevention of tick encounter and eventually vaccination. Due to continual global warming we can expect that in near future ticks will spread even to locations which have been so far not suitable for their development. We can expect that we will even more frequently encounter tick-borne diseases - including diseases which were formerly not found in our territory or were very rare. As a part of health education it will be needed more to get known basic information of tick-borne diseases and their prevention. Different educational centres are an ideal place for...

The main research problem concerns the characteristics of tick-borne disease and determine the quantity and quality of information that students get in health education and biology of these diseases. The theoretical part deals with the history, etiology, clinical features, diagnosis, treatment and prevention of tick-borne encephalitis and Lyme disease. It also discusses the general problems of tick and other diseases that ticks carry and cause. Also is mentioned the inclusion of tick-borne diseases in the educational program. The practical part is devoted to the awareness of upper primary school students and changes in their knowledge about the issue during their elementary education. The aim of this thesis is to determine how the students are informed about diseases transmitted by ticks, especially about Lyme disease and tick-borne encephalitis. This method is used questionnaire, which includes questions regarding this issue. Although the results of the research show a certain degree of knowledge of students at upper primary school, especially in some classes is unsatisfactory. Based on research, there is provided a recommendation for pedagogical practices. KEYWORDS: tick, tick-borne encephalitis, Lyme disease, knowledge, disease, upper primary school

Brázdová, Tereza ; Zimčíková, Eva (advisor) ; Rejmanová, Anna (referee)
Analysis of Spontaneous Adverse Events Reports after Tick-Borne Encephalitis Vaccine Author: Tereza Brázdová Supervisor: PharmDr. Eva Zimčíková, Ph.D. Consultant: PharmDr. Kateřina Malá, Ph.D. Department of Social and Clinical Pharmacy, Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové, Charles University Introduction and aim: Tick-borne meningoencephalitis is one of the most frequent causes of viral meningitis in Europe. In recent years, the number of cases of this infection in the Czech Republic has begun to rise. Vaccination is the only reliable protection against infection, but it also comes with some risks. Analysis of spontaneous adverse reaction reports is a key source of information for signal detection, which is used to identify drug risks. The aim of this thesis was to analyse the spontaneous reporting of suspected adverse drug reactions (ADRs), using the data from the Central Database of ADRs provided by the State Institute for Drug Control. Methodology: Descriptive statistics were performed from reporting data in the period from June 2004 to October 2017. For example, the total number of reports, the number of ADRs and the patient characteristics were analysed. We compared the adverse reactions with the Vigibase database and evaluated the expectability of reported reactions. Results: During the...
