The Objectives and Effectiveness of Primary Tobacco Addiction Prevention within Elementary Schools in České Budějovice.
PODLENOVÁ, Kateřina
This bachelor´s thesis ?The Objectives and Effectiveness of Primary Tobacco Addiction Prevention within Elementary Schools in České Budějovice? deals with the evaluation of specific primary tobacco addiction prevention in elementary schools in České Budějovice and an analysis of policies used by school prevention methodologist in order to assess the effectiveness of exercised prevention. The primary prevention of social pathological phenomena is conducted according ?Minimal Prevention Scheme?, which each school is obliged to prepare and evaluate in ?The Final Report of Minimal Prevention Scheme Fulfilment?. I employed qualitative research, interviews, structured interviews with open questions, and content analysis of the data of Minimal Prevention Schemes. The research group consists of school prevention methodologist from ten elementary schools (both junior and senior) in České Budějovice. I have suggested five hypotheses based on the research and specialised literature. Hypothesis 1: Effective forms of primary prevention are not being sufficiently deployed in the České Budějovice elementary schools. Hypothesis 2: Primary tobacco addiction prevention is not continual or systematically planned. Hypothesis 3: Parents fail to cooperate with the tobacco preventiv program. Hypothesis 4: Evaluation of primary tobacco addiction prevention is not being carried out in the České Budějovice elementary schools. Hypothesis 5: Primary tobacco addiction prevention in České Budějovice elementary schools is not effective due to the heavy workload of school prevention methodologist and the lack of time to plan primary prevention. In order to improve the effectivaness of primary tobacco addiction prevention I recommend participation in one of the national anti-smoking programmes, improvement of cooperation with parents and a the implementation of school prevention methodologist as an independent position.

Prevention of complications and staying in shape with patients who have Parkinson disorder
NÁDVORNÍKOVÁ, Lucie
In the theoretical part of this thesis, symptoms and development of the disease are described. Techniques and methods of physiotherapy are mentioned in the chapter dealing with treatment through using physical exercise. Physiotherapy plays an important role in the medical care of the patients with PD.In the practical part, the influence of kinesiotherapy on the quality of patients? mobility is assessed. The research techniques carried out were a semi-structured interview, observation and casuistry. Four patients with PD from the club called "Parkinson" in Ceske Budejovice took part in the research ? two men and two women ? all of them in the middle stage of the disease. Goniometric examination, the third part of the ?UPDRS? - The Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale of PD and examination of posture and walking were used.The results showed an improvement or at least maintaining the mobility and range of motion in the patients. In the case of longer-term therapy, a greater effect of exercise on the mobility of patients could be expected.

Properties of whiper motor
Kůta, Aleš ; Skalka, Miroslav (referee) ; Janda, Marcel (advisor)
Nowadays a need of numerical computations of different tasks in the area of electrical engeneering is still rising. Common denominator of great demands given on a constructor and ecomonization of manifacturing is a requirement of efficiency. It´s necessary to use a characterictics of construction, own fundamentals and unique attributes of product. Application of Finite Element Method is possible solution which accombines abilities and knowledge of user in consecutive to complexity of computatio. This enables a use of the most optimal solution. This thesis describes a principals of Direct-Current motor and its´ special design: Direct Inductor motor with extrinsic excitation (permanent magnests). It presents a operation of wiper motor in consecutive to wiping systém and fulfillment of engeneering standards. It also describes a principles of Finite Element Method in context to basics of simulation program FEMM. Main attention is given to creation of concrete model and to simulation of gauged exercise with wiper motor. Also there is a second simulation of motor, focused to different type of stator excitation. Findings of thesis is a comparation of theese exercises. Consecution of modeling in software environment is described. It compiles gauged excercise and interprets them.

Spálovská, Hana ; Pavlů, Dagmar (advisor) ; Novotná, Irena (referee)
Title: Evaluation of the Effectiveness of Back Schools in Vertebrogenic Syndromes of Low Back Objectives: To compare the effectiveness of particular back schools. The main goals were to prove the successfulness of back schools in patients with vertebrogenic algic syndrome, to find out jobs with the most promising response to back schools and to reveal possible use of back schools in children. Methods: The dissertation has a descriptive-analytical character and was conducted as a literature review. Results: The results showed the effectiveness of the back schools concept in chronic low back pain. The effect was particularly obvious after two-month duration of the programmes. The most promising results were observed in professionals whose lumbar spine is overexerted due to heavy loads lifting or due to daily routines set into ergonomically inconvenient workplace. The back school concept might be used in children as well, who can mainly take advantage of active exercises and correct ergonomics. This dissertation also sums up other physiotherapeutic concepts relating to this subject. Key words: Back school, low back pain, prevention

Gait disorders in Patients with Parkinson's disease
Bulová, Hana ; Zárubová, Kateřina (advisor) ; Valouchová, Petra (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with problems of the Parkinson's disease (PD). It is an incurable neurodegenerative disorder which is caused by degeneration of pigment cells producing dopamine in the substantia nigra. The lack of dopamine impairs regulating activities of the basal ganglia. That leads to manifestation of the typical symptoms of PD. Knowledge survey briefly describes symptoms, diagnostics and treatment for this disease. This paper focuses on neurolocomotor process, movement control and especially gait disorders which occurs in patients with Parkinson's disease. Problems with walking develops subsequently, progressively limiting patients in their daily activities. Because current medications providing little relieve, physiotherapy plays an important role in ameliorating these symptoms. This thesis describes various physiotherapeutic approaches. It emphasizes necessity of regular exercising which is absolutely essential to slow the progression of the disease and its debilitating effects. Practical part of this work focuses on the efficacy of the therapy on one patient. This man has the typical PD symptoms and freezing and hesitation often happens to him. He has no cognitive deficit which may hinder his ability to cooperate with therapist. This part also evaluate impact of the therapy based patient's...

Democratic legitimacy of politics: competence to suffrage and logic of election
Vorlíček, Jan ; Buben, Radek (advisor) ; Znoj, Milan (referee)
The aim of this study is to analyze legitimacy of policy. Its fulfillment should emerge from detailed inquiry of the essential sense of social institutions. The work is divided into three chapters therefore. The first chapter deals with law as a basic system of order of social relations. It explains its fundamental social goal (reducing transaction costs of social action) and its influence on the development of civilization. It discusses in detail the property rights as a fundament of any real legal system - both at the legal level and economic level (i.e. how the system of property rights coordinates social activities and allocates scarce resources, how it creates the elite, and when there is a fault efficiency of this process). The second chapter deals with the social obligations which are necessary condition for preservation of law. These obligations are labeled as taxes (as opposed to tributes that basis is not in the obligation to maintain the legal system and are only ransom inherently). Particular attention is paid to the fair distribution of these obligations (tax justice) and also to the impact of taxation on the development of civilization.
