Imaging algorithm for suspected spinal canal disease and related therapeutic possibilities in radiology
NOVOTNÁ, Martina
The disease of the spinal canal is, at present, a disease with increasing incidence. Nearly 60% of patients, coming to the physicians in the CR state they have a ?back-ache?. Besides the complications after the injury and inherent development disorders, also the unhealthy life style of the present population contributes to this fact. Already children and young people suffer of the disease of the spinal canal caused by overweight, lack of movement or on the contrary by excessive extent of unsuitable movement. The adult patients suffer from difficulties caused by the heavy physical labor or on the contrary by a sedentary job. In the last years, also the number of injuries has been increasing suffered by persons during the transport accidents or adrenalin sports. This disease deteriorates considerably the quality of life as it is accompanied by the uncomfortable pains and limitations. Vertebrogenous diseases represent one of the most important socially economic problems of present civilization as they are a frequent cause of the sick leave and subsequently also of the invalidity of economically active persons. The theoretical part of my bachelor thesis deals shortly with anatomy, functions and diseases of the spinal canal. Moreover I describe the principles of individual displaying methods applied for diagnostics of spinal canal diseases. In practical part of my thesis, I deal with the description of the equipment and with the individual displaying and therapeutic methods available at present. The main aim of this thesis is confirming or refuting the hypothesis that it is necessary to perform more displaying modalities for determining the diagnosis of the spinal canal disease. I succeeded to prove the hypothesis by processing the statistical data from the radio-diagnostic department of the Hospital of Písek, by means of calculations, creating the charts and diagrams.

Evaluation of economic instuments used in nature protection, with special attention paid to the landscape care programmes (case study of the Třeboňsko PLA and South Bohemian Region)
FRYŠOVÁ, Jana
The Bachelor Thesis also includes mapping and assessment of economic instruments supporting nature protection and landscape conservation emphasizing the related programmes which are demonstrated on the example of the Protected Landscape Area of Třeboňsko and South Bohemian Region. Background materials were analysed and interviews with the relevant employees working for the given authorities were conducted in order to acquire all necessary information and required analyses. The result of the analysis examining the period between 2006 and 2011 proves the difference of the financial acquisition for different organisations subject to the given survey followed by the possibility of influencing their amount as a consequence. It also emphasizes the difference in ?price ceilings? for the activities concluded within the actions related to the conservation of landscape and natural heritage and values and the preserved specially protected territories and areas belonging to Natura 2000 network. The period subject to the survey reveals that financing of common nature conservation and landscape protection of specially protected territories and areas belonging to Natura 2000 network was concentrated on national programmes and financial means provided by local administrative units. By comparing the scopes of competency of the Regional Authority ? South Bohemian Region and the Administration of Protected Landscape Area of Třeboňsko led to the conclusion that both entities were using similar instruments for nature and landscape protection.

The link between work conditions and subjective health in the Czech Republic
Krátká, Tereza ; Hamplová, Dana (advisor) ; Kuchař, Pavel (referee)
The relationship between health and working conditions represents an important topic of sociologic research. Still, in the Czech context this theme has not been sufficiently dealt with. This work's aim is to contribute to the research in the branch, to offer a detail study of the relationship between subjective health and working conditions. Firstly, the theoretical part of the text offers definitions of the concepts subjective health and working conditions. Secondly, there are defined three hypotheses about the relationship between the categories subjective health and working conditions. Then, the hypotheses are tested using contingency tables and regression analysis. Afterwards, there is offered a comparison between the study's conclusions and outputs of similar foreign works. The results of the analysis correspond with those reached in foreign context - in comparison with unemployed, economically active people feel them healthier. Using the regression model, significant influence of education on this relationship was proved. Other testing brought a conclusion that people working in difficult conditions evaluate their health worse than people who do not have to cope with hard working conditions. There was not proved a significant difference between men and women in evaluation of subjective health...

The Theme of Death in Middle Eastern Literary Sources
Ryšavá, Erika ; Holubová, Markéta (referee) ; Nosek, Bedřich (advisor)
This work has led us to the Middle East in the period, when the ideas that later influenced whole European culture, were formed. One of the goals was to show us the situation the Old Testament was formed in. The other goal was to prove the level of influence caused to it by I was interested in a problem of Nation in need of its own identity that was necessary for it to survive. Later canonised thesis, medieval society adored, were just consequences of this process. Different ways in burying corpses, differences in acceptance of either death and life, various imaginations of after-life and evaluation of life on the other side. Other important cultic matter beside the death was taken into account. Not only because of better understanding of that period. Also for an understanding of hu man life in social structure. Clear explanation of how 'Israel' had fought to maintain its own dedication, such different from the rest of the world. On the other hand I admit that I was not successful in transition this theme to the present time.

International impact of unilateral declaration of independence of Kosovo
Janicki, Miloš ; Matějka, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Kochan, Jan (referee)
My goal was to attempt to analyze impact of Kosovo crisis on international relations. Kosovo issue and its solutions have shaped two important principles of international relations in the last decade, which by repeating tend to become precedents. The first principle is humanitarian intervention without the mandate of UN, which was first applied in Yugoslavia in 1999. Similar action was applied in several different states during the last decade. Second principle, which is the main subject of my thesis, is unilateral declaration of independence which was recognized by more sovereign states then in previous occasions. By analysis of events in Georgia I tried to prove that separatism could become an instrument of international relations in future. Authority of UN is shaken in last decade and it could lead to reshaping of world order. Single-sided interpretation of morality and principles can replace international law. Apart from analyzing global impact of Kosovo crises I have tried to explore the problem in detail by researching the causes that let to conflict. Most of the attention I have devoted to period between 1974 and 1999, which I find crucial in the forming a situation that led to unilateral declaration in 2008. In the first part of my work I tended to explore international law arguments that were used by both followers and opponents of independence and tried to preview aspects of teory of secession

Risks of the Road Transport And Their Factors
HEJKRLÍK, Lukáš
The bachelor thesis Risks of the Road Transport And Their Factors deals mainly with the risk of avenues that are planted along the Czech roads. I have focused on basic definitions that are closely connected to road transport and I have also focused on ex-planation of practical methods used when assessing traffic accidents in the theoretical part of the thesis. In the practical part of the thesis I have focused on concrete analyses related to existence of avenues along the Czech roads. These analyses confirm the de-gree of risk of road transport itself but especially fatal consequences of accidents caused by a crash with a fixed obstacle that is often presented by a tree from avenues along the roads. The analyses discovered that the accident rate in the Czech Republic is decreasing. However, the fact that the risks connected with consequences of tree crash are decreas-ing more slowly, is still alarming. The detailed graphs and tables in the bachelor thesis show the number of casualties connected to a traffic accident caused by a crash with a fixed obstacle and they prove that the consequences of accidents caused by a crash with a tree are worse than the consequences of accidents caused by a crash with a crash bar-rier, even though they both are considered a fixed obstacle. Last but not least the costs and total economic losses caused by the highest negative factor, i.e. the accident rate, are calculated by using the tables and graphs.

Resource curse theory - An example of Venezuela
Hruška, Pavel ; Kučerová, Irah (advisor) ; Krausz Hladká, Malvína (referee)
The main objective of this Master thesis was to test the claim that economic dependence on oil exports impedes enduring democratic stability in the case of Venezuela in the period of 1970-2010. This assumption was based on a broad resource curse theory which addresses negative economic, political and social consequences of precious resource export dependency. The hypothesis was that exogenous variables could intesify these malign consequences. In this study we focused on the role(s) performed by multinational oil corporations (MICs) in Venezuelan petroleum industry, on the impact of the nationalization of the oil sector and on the impact of the foundation of a state-owned corporation PDVSA, which became responsible for subsequent development of oil extraction. Fist, I proved that the nationalization led to profound restructuring of institutional and power relations that had negative impact on economic prosperity and stability of the democratic regime in a long-term perspective. Soon after its establishment the national oil corporation became an independent actor able to follow its own agenda and to promote its own economic and political interests and therefore polarized the already divided society. Second, I documented empirical evidence that corroborated most of the previous theoretical...

Conversion of formatting objects to ODF
Bodnár, Petr ; Kosek, Jiří (advisor) ; Pajas, Petr (referee)
This thesis deals with conversion of text documents from the format of so called formatting objects (XSL FO) to OpenDocument format (ODF). This conversion can be useful e. g. for distribution, printing or additional modification of a document in a text editor which supports ODF (e. g. OpenOffice). The thesis starts with description of both formats and it mentions basic elements that the formats offer for defining a text document. A comparison of both formats and description of possibilities of converting documents from XSL FO to ODF follows right after. The proved-by-practise and widely available XSLT transformation is chosen for the conversion implementation. It is illustrated on a sample application which enables to launch the conversion from an internet browser, from OpenOffice or from a command line.

Comparison of the institute of subsistence minimum in Czech and Slovak Republic from 1993 to 2015
Feurich, Marek ; Kubelková, Karina (advisor) ; Bartůsková, Lucia (referee)
After the split of the Czechoslovak Federal Republic (CSFR) to the Czech and Slovak Republics in 1993, both countries retain most ČSFR laws, including law no. 463/1991 Sb., o životním minimu. So the starting position was the same for both countries. A number of modifications of the legislative environment, which happened over the years in both countries, provides a suitable space for the realization of comparative analysis. The aim of this thesis is to compare the institute of subsistence minimum (SM) in the Czech and Slovak Republic between 1993-2015, and prove the assumptions that the institute of SM always held in both countries the same function, was highly motivational to reintegrate the unemployed into the workforce, and the greater amount of SM has always meant a higher income for people in material need in particular country. But the conducted comparative analysis does not confirm the assumptions.
