Physiotherapy of functional disorders resulting from the prolonged sitting at a computer- focusing on neck pain
RYBECKÁ, Pavla
The topic of this Bachelor thesis looks at the issue of ?Physiotherapy of functional movement disorder originating from sitting in front of a computer for long periods ? aimed at pain in the cervical spine?. Many people with long-term sitting jobs often complain about pain in the cervical spine. The theoretical part focuses especially on ergonomics while sitting and the proper poise or postures of sitting. The second part of the aforesaid theoretical part describes the cervical spine anatomy, as well as causes of the origin of pain in the cervical spine and its symptoms. Finally, the theoretical part introduces various possibilities for therapy dealing with functional movement disorder of the cervical spine. The aim of the thesis is to specify the functional disorder of the limbs movement system, appoint and implement an individual plan and assess the resulting effect of therapy. Qualitative research focused on data collection was used as the main method by using different practices, such as direct anamnesis, input and output medical examination, nursing observation, document analysis, project and execution of a physiotherapeutic schedule. The survey was carried out on 2 men and 1 woman who have jobs which require long-term sitting. Their working tasks require sitting in front of a computer for at least an 8-hour period a day. All three people submitting the given survey suffered from pain in the cervical spine. The kinesiological examination described faulty body poises and related findings on soft tissues of the given testing group. The main problem was also caused by a faulty poise while sitting in front of a computer. The objective of the aforesaid therapy concentrated on releasing the overload of stressed muscle groups and on their integration according to the optimal kinetic formula. Functional movement disorders of the spine are prevented by implementing ergonomics of sitting in front of a computer. The results of the given survey demonstrate that the cervical spine subsided. Furthermore, the practical part of the thesis reveals that the positive effect of the targeted physiotherapy dealing with functional disorder and changes of the stereotype of our postures and poises was considerable. The main problem causing pain was incorrect poise while sitting at the desk. The essential point of therapy was to release the overload of muscle groups and their integration into a new poise. The results of the given survey demonstrate that pain in the cervical spine has been alleviated. Based on the results introduced in the practical part, it may be stated that functional movement disorder can be positively influenced by targeted physiotherapy and changes made in the routine of body movements. The results specified in the submitted thesis shall be used in practice for the needs of other surveys to follow, during lessons or by companies furnishing their offices.

Nursing care of patients with burn trauma.
HAVELKOVÁ, Martina
Burn trauma is very stressing for patients physically due to the high level of pain, damage to the skin and risk of infection, and also from a psycho-social perspective. There are currently several facilities dedicated to burn therapy. These are staffed by quality personnel with a high level of experience, who increase the hopes of patients to achieve better living conditions. Therapy depends on the extent of the handicap as well as other factors affecting the individual. Extensive burns require treatment in specialized facilities, where the patient is subject to a demanding and long-term therapy. Such patients are subject to multiple surgical procedures in total anaesthesia. The burn trauma has many complications during the healing process. The physician together with the nurse care for the patient and play a crucial role in this process. The patient will is subject to a long-term rehabilitation and complicated reintegration into society. We carried out a quantitative examination by means of 65 questionnaires handed out to general nurses, of which 58 could be used. The objectives of the thesis were met. We defined five hypotheses: H1: Nurses observe the principles of care for patients with burn trauma. H2: Nurses are aware of the effectiveness of rehabilitation treatment when caring for clients with burn trauma. H3: It is easier for nurses to provide care to patients with burn trauma if the patient is lying on an air bed as opposed to a standard bed. H4: Nurses cooperate with a clinical psychologist when caring for a patient with burn trauma. H5: Nurses cooperate with a nutrition therapist when caring for a patient with burn trauma. All the hypotheses were confirmed except hypothesis H3, which was disconfirmed. The research examination showed that nurses adhere to the principles of hygienic care for patients with burn trauma, and that they are aware of the effectiveness of rehabilitation treatment in burn care. Care for patients on an air bed is not easier for nurses than on a standard bed. On the contrary, it is physically more demanding. It was further confirmed that nurses cooperate with a clinical psychologist as well as a nutrition therapist when caring for patients with burn trauma. The diploma thesis is elaborated in such a way so that it can be used to create and present a standard, which will help to improve care for patients with burn trauma.

Differences in the basic pitch relevant to the perceptual distinction of melodemes in English
Veroňková, Jitka ; Palková, Zdenka (advisor) ; Krčmová, Marie (referee)
As in the case of many other languages, the intonation fulfils certain linguistic functions in Czech. It distinguishes conclusive vs. non-conclusive clauses, declarative vs. interrogative clauses and neutral vs. marked usage clauses. In the case of declarative and interrogative clauses, the intonation is the single distinguishing feature. Structures of the basic patterns to express these linguistic functions were standardized and in general accepted, but not enough is known about their particular realizations. In general, these structure types are realized in the final stress unit of the utterance. It has been confirmed that the intonation courses of some functionally diverse contours are similar and there exist overlaps among them. The perceptual differences between contours can be caused only by the size of F0 excursions. Our research focuses on finding minimal distinctions in F0 excursions which are sufficient to distinguish phonologically different types of sentences. Some structure types can be fully realized on the at least three-syllable stress units, that is why these were chosen to be analysed. The research is based both on synthetic speech and natural one. Two sets of synthetic contours, first containg three-syllable stress units and the second the four-syllable ones, that cover the structure...

Effect of milking with an automatic milking system on selected incides of cattle welfare
PROVAZNÍKOVÁ, Iveta
The aim of my bachelor thesis was to evaluace the welfar of dairy cows. They are loosely housed and milked by robot. The main indicators were total time spent by cows in the robot and information about the movement of cows after leaving the milking box. The next step was to evaluate a time needed to prepare a dairy cow from entrance into the robot to a successful use of teat handpiece. Of course it was necessary to evaluate effects of stress on selected blood parameters. We can give us an idea of welfare using this loosely housing based on these observation. Next reason is the posibility of free decision in which intervals during the day the cows will be milked. Measured and monitored values were collected by observing dairy cows and precise records of their activities from entrance into the robot. In thirty minutes after leaving the robot it was recorded the movement of animals in housing and then satisfying their physiological needs, rating, drinking and lying down. The measurment was realized in standard operating conditions for 24 hours. The measurment was realized by all milked cows in the herd. Time information of ongoing operations and daily milk production were taken from the milking robot Lely Astronaut. Results of these measurements were evaluated by Microsoft Excel, Statistica 9 and then compared with total performance. Information of stress in all ways of milking were getting from the experimental work of VFU Brno. The observations didn´t show any serious problems in welfare area. Animals were calm and satisfied all the time of evaluating. Milking was carried out without any problems and dairy cows entered discipline into the box of robot. Only five cows (6 % of milked cows) had to be chasing with the help of zootechnician. But in the most of cases we talk about heifers and they have to adapt. During the observation it was detected 147 milking at 58 dairy cows. In diametr that was 2,54 milking per one cow. With the average yield 14,87 kg it means, that the average daily performance of one dairy cow was 37,8 kg of milk. The preparation for milking lasted about 2 minutes and 25 seconds. The time of actual milking was average 6 minutes. After milking 83,7 % of the monitored cows sought food and only 6,8 % of monitored cows lay down. The average daily yield significantly increased in the cows, these are milked three times a day, which means 31 % growth. The activity curve of diary cows in the chart showed strong willingness of dairy cows to work with the milking robot. Cortisone in the blood serum showed no values over the limit.

Mental Hygiene as a Fundamental Premise of Prevention of Burnout Syndrome in Selected High-Risk Professions
RYBÁČKOVÁ, Ilga
Helping professions are characterized by high demands on the personality of a helping person. A lot of researches show that members of these professions are at risk of the burnout syndrome. Mental hygiene serves to maintain mental health and is the basis for prevention of the burnout syndrome. The aim of the bachelor thesis is to reveal the relationship between the incidence of symptoms of burnout and compliance or violation of the mental hygiene principles. Another aim of the research is to find out, whether the members of the selected high?risk professions know about and keep the mental hygiene principles, and also to find out, whether the compliance with the mental hygiene principles has impact on the burnout prevention. The theoretical part, first of all, characterizes concepts of helping professions, psychological stress, its cause and symptoms. Burnout syndrome is then described in details ? definition, cause, symptoms and treatment. Then, the main part of the thesis follows. It is dedicated to mental hygiene as a prevention of burnout. Particular aspects of mental hygiene, such as healthy lifestyle, diet, sleep hygiene or relaxation techniques are described here. In the end other factors influencing the burnout are mentioned - supervision, self- assessment, and interpersonal relationships. To achieve the objectives, qualitative research was carried out, realized by the method of questioning, technique of the non-standardized interview. The respondents were chosen from 4 high-risks professions ? teachers, nurses, social workers and rescue workers. Quota selection was carried out, based on the results of Burnout Measure questionnaire, which examines symptoms of burnout. The research has shown that the representatives from the selected professions are aware of burnout syndrome and know mental hygiene principles. The research has also shown that integration of mental hygiene principles into lives of helping people has impact on the burnout prevention. The interviews also proved impact of other factors. Above all, good relationships at the workplace and supervision can have positive influence.

Phospholipase D Beta in hormonal signaling of Arabidopsis Thaliana
Krutinová, Hana ; Ryšlavá, Helena (advisor) ; Hýsková, Veronika (referee)
Plants, as well as all other living organisms, have to react to environmental changes and are forced to put up with the danger that comes from their environment. As a response to this danger, a sophisticated defense system, which moderates responses to stress cues, comes from the outside as well as created inside the plant itself, has evolved in plants. The signaling in this system is mediated by a number of phytohormones, which include salicylic acid, jasmonic acid, abscisic acid, ethylen and auxins. The phytohormone signaling results in a transcription of specific genes. One of the essential components of this signaling network is the phospholipid signaling system, where enzymes called phospholipases play a major role. These enzymes catalyze the hydrolysis of phospholipids, which are part of cellular membranes and products of the hydrolysis can act as signal transferring molecules. In this thesis we studied the potential engagement of phospholipase Dβ isoform into signaling pathways, using an Arabidopsis thaliana mutant plant with mutations in both genes coding phospholipase Dβ. Firstly, we verified that wild type phospholipase Dβ mRNA is not being transcribed in the mutant plants. Subsequently, we compared mutant and wild type plants' reactions to mechanical wounding, pathogen infection and...

Divorce of marriage and its impact on the education of dependent children
VITHOVÁ, Jana
Divorce rate in the Czech Republic is high. In 2013 an increase of the number of divorces was recorded in comparison to the previous year 2012. A total of 27 900 marriages were divorced in 2013. Majority of which had underage children. Marriage divorce is one of the most stressful things in the life of a human being and is the consequence of long crisis in the marriage. Common cause of this crisis are different personalities, opinions and interests, cheating, alcoholism or lack of interest in the family. Divorce is a difficult time for parents and thein children and its consequences are manifested in everyday workings of the family. This work is divided into theoretical and practical parts. Theoretical part explains the basic concepts, for example: divorce of a marriage and its causes, legal interventions of divorce and situation of minors after the divorce, for example: exclusive single parent care, both parent care, alternating care. Following this the work deals with children's communication with the second parent, classmates, friends; Their school results and the change in their behaviour and behaviour disorders after the divorce. Practical part consist of determination of main and secondary target, description of chosen research process its methods and technique.The practical part contains a truncated form of reports on the results and the conclusion with recommendations for practical use. Main aim of this work was to find out how parents percieve consequences of divorce on the upbringing of their underage children. Secondary's part aim was to find out which parts of child raising were affected the most by the divorce. Thesis was processed by the qualitative research form. Questioning method was also used with the semi-structured conversation. Research file was created from five divorced marriages with underage children, which lived through divorce proceedings and at least a year passed. In the scope of the research it was found out, that parents perceive the consequences of the divorce on the upbringing of their children and that they try to minimise said consequences. It was also found out which areas of child raising the divorce effects the most. With this the main and secondary goal was fulfilled. This bachelor's thesis could be used as a theme for this subject in the form of quantitative research. The results could then be transferred to the general plane.
