The Influence of Specific Genes on Joint Hypermobility
Krýda, Tomáš ; Žatečka, Ladislav (advisor) ; Tomší, Adéla (referee)
This thesis is concerned with the influence of specific genes on the occurence of joint hypermobility. The main goal is to verify, whether the hypermobility test results differ among persons tested for the polymorphism of COL5A1, ACTN3, COL1A1 and GDF-5 gene with the respet to a particular genotype. The theoretical part of the thesis presented the specifics of sports genetics, general overview of the most important findings about hypermobilty, the manners in which it can be examined, its clinical features and also a detailed analysis of the role of the above stated genes, their association with health and performance attributes and their relation to hypermobility and range of motion. In the practical part, an examination of 15 probands (9 males and 6 females) at the age of 28,7 ± 5,6 years was conducted applying four scoring systems for measuring hypermobility. All probands were genetically tested by the PCR method. The statistical analysis was carried out by one-factor ANOVA. The statistical significance p < 0,05 wasn't reached with respect to any of the analysed genes. For SNP rs 12722 of COL5A1 gene, the average medians of the total hypermobilty score with respect to a particular genotype were 10,82 (CC), 7,30 (CT) and 10,99 (TT). For SNP rs 1815739 of ACTN3 the average medians of the total...

Hlobilová, Magdaléna ; Nováková, Tereza (advisor) ; Maršáková, Kateřina (referee)
Title: Ranges of joint mobility in the hip and ankle joints and evaluation of flat feet on a podoscope when finding hallux valgus in classical ballet dancers Objectives: The aim of this thesis is to evaluate if selected parameters: passive range of motion (ROM) of rotations in hip joints, Q angle, passive range of motion of plantar flexion in ankle joints and the foot index are connected with the finding of hallux valgus (HV) diagnose. These factors will be compared between two groups of ballet dancers, one with HV and one without the HV diagnose. Methods: This observational case control study involved 30 probands between the age of 20-40 years. The experimental group consisted of classical ballet dances with the HV angle (HVA) >15ř at least on one foot (n1 = 19), in the control group were classical ballet dancers with the HVA <15ř bilaterally (n2 = 11). The HVA, ROM of the rotations in the hip joints, ROM of the plantar flexion in the ankle joints and Q angle were measured by a goniometer. The plantogram was captured by a photograph of the foot while standing on a podoscope and then it was evaluated by the Sztriter-Godunov method. Analysis of the data was done in R software by means of a Welch's Two-Sample t-Test and the correlation was given by Pearson's Correlation Coefficient. Results: Contrary...

The influence of therapy with flossing tape to range of motion and fascia chains in lower extermities.
Pisarčík, Ján ; Malá, Jitka (advisor) ; Pavlů, Dagmar (referee)
Diploma thesis title: Influence of tissue flossing therapy on the range of motion and fascial chains in the lower limbs. Objectives: The main objective is to present theoretical facts about tissue flossing therapy, to document the effect of this method on the active range of motion in the lower limbs and to investigate whether this increase in movement can be achieved by influencing fascial chains in distant parts of the musculoskeletal system. Methods: The research was completed by 30 recreational or high-level athletes aged 19 to 26 years. Initial testing and subsequent treatment of the ankle joint and surrounding fascial structures were done using the tissue flossing technique. The initial tests consisted of a weight- bearing lunge test to test the dorsal flexion of the ankle joint and a Thomayer test to test the range of motion within the fascial superficial back line. Treatment of both ankle joints and surrounding fascial structures on both lower limbs was followed by final testing. The resulting data were processed using mathematical software R. A paired t-test, a two-sample t-test for independent selections assuming different variables and a test of the agreement of the fraction with a known constant were used to calculate the p-values. Statistical significance was determined at the critical...

Benda, Petr ; Nováková, Tereza (advisor) ; Žáková, Lenka (referee)
The title of the master thesis: Clinical evaluation of ROM of shoulder joint in cadet and junior category players of so-called overhead sports Abstract in English language: The goal of this thesis is to elucidate whether the "overhead" athletes like handballers and volleyballers suffer from extension changes and local hypermobility in their shoulder joints. These changes are going to be described by trigonometric measurements and hypermobility tests by Sachse. It is going to be determined which "overhead" athletes are affected the most. Their sex is going to be taken into consideration. The theoretical part of the thesis describes selected "overhead" sports and their strain on a human body from a kinesiologic point of view. Especially the impact of offensive blows in volleyball and throws in handball on shoulder joints are going to be examined. The thesis is going to examine a shoulder girdle from an anatomy, kinesiology, biomechanics, and physiology point of view. A chapter focused on hypermobility and it is classification is included too. 95 people without a prior injury of a shoulder joint in the age from 16 to 19 years old including 73 "overhead" athletes were tested. There were 30 men, 40 women, 34 handballers, and 39 volleyballers. In the control group, there were 22 people, of which 11 men and 11...
