Family house in a slope
Vlach, Ondřej ; Šuhajdová, Ing Eva (referee) ; Šuhajda, Karel (advisor)
The aim of bachelor’s thesis is to design a family house in a slope.. The house is designed for 4 to 5 family members in the town of Polná near Jihlava. The shape and height position of the house is adapted to vertical alignment of the ground. It is designed as three-storey house including a partial underground storey. The one car garage is next to the house and shares one common wall with it. The main entrance is in the first floor from the street of Na Podhoře. The main residential rooms are situated to the south side of the house. Vertical constructions are made of ceramic blocks and the underground floor is made of concrete blocks. The horizontal constructions are made of girders and ceramic blocks. The staircase is made of reinforced concrete. The roof is one-face flat roof. The facade makes contrast with white plaster and dark plaster in the perimeter.

Task of nurse in support of care about ill senior in a family
MRÁZOVÁ, Lucie
Old age is a natural part of our lives. Poetically, it is considered to be its autumn. Aging is a natural process and in nature it can be observed at every living creature. Everything is aging, and also we are becoming old. These days, longevity is an indicator of how much civilized each country is. As a result of quality health care and the development of society, people are living to higher age. These days, men are on average expected to live up to 79 years, women up to 74 years {--} figures that would have been considered unthinkable in the past. Taking into account these figures, several questions arise: Are we adequately prepared? Do we have, today, a system of care for the elderly to assure a respectable life for us and our parents in future? In the most ideal world, it would be the family or a close relative who would look after the old, ill or the person with limited self-sufficiency. However, this is a very demanding claim on family environment in these nervous and fast-pacing days. My bachelor thesis analyses the question of old age and all the problems it brings. I have attempted to look deeper into the role of a nurse in homecare. The practical part aims to map the role of a nurse in a home-based care and to determine her possibilities (on the basis of a questionnaire technique) in treating the elderly with health problems at home. Another partial goal of this thesis is to ascertain what needs do the ill elderly people have at home and in what ways can the nurse satisfy these needs, and to determine the physical and social strain it creates on the caregiver. After analyzing the results, my conclusion is as follows: The role of a non-professional caregiver is very significant. Family has and will always have an irreplaceable place in the care for its dependant members. There is no way any medical organization can replace the role of a family in the care for its ill family members. Care, especially long-term care, can be both mentally and physically demanding and puts an enormous strain on the caregiver. Caregivers are threatened by the deterioration of family ties, loss of friends, limited social contacts leading up to social isolation, they are prone to suffer from health problems and, in many cases, great exhaustion. The solution is to make use of a home-based care: professional nursing care provided by professional nurses. The purpose of a home-based care is to leave the patient in his/her home environment as long as possible and, at the same time, to provide professional nursing care. This care is complementary to family care; the nurse is helping the caregiver - family member. Based on my analysis, it's a very gratifying fact that nurses working in this line of work provide it gladly and with loving care. The care for the elderly is based on the principle of gratefulness, love, on the principle of sharing mutual feelings and the joys of small improvements. If we manage to increase the quality of life of caregivers with an adequate help, we will also enable the elderly or ill people to lead a contended and better quality life.

Role of radiological assistant by angiografic procedures
EISNER, Tomáš
Angiography as an X - ray examination of blood vessels showed an expressive development since its creation. From translumbal puncture of the abdominal aorta up to more tender Seldinger technique it led to considerable decrease of occurrence of peripro-cedural complications. Angiographic interventions and involved materials, instrumenta-tion devices and image processing possibilities are expressively improving. Invasive an-giopraphic examinations are substituted by non-invasive interventions like ultrasonogra-phy, magnetic resonance or computer tomography. After all they remain integral part of examination algorithms, especially by vessels interventions. A common note of invasive procedures in Cath-lab - in addition to diagnostics also by an intravascular ultrasonography or by therapeutical procedures like percutaneous transluminal angioplasty, stent implantation, vessels embolisation, trombolysis and trombectomy and other {--} is using of fluoroscopy with ionizing radiation and intravascular application of a contrast medium. Radiologic assistant has its more and more unsubstitutable role by diagnostic im-aging of vessels. Radiologic assistant has to be familiar with course of single intervention and with sequence of doctor{\crq}s operations, in order to be able to fulfill his requirements in time and at the same time he has to understand possible risk of complication's and he has to know how to respond to them properly and in time. Further he must well manage an-giography device and all its parts and know postprocessing picture adjustment. Quality work of radiologic assistant should have fundamental influence on dose of ionizing radiation for patient and for examining staff and on consumption and risks of application of contrast medium. By my own experiences with assistance by 4 628 non-coronary and 14 620 coro-nary angiographic examinations in last 10 years (1997-2006) I found set of 40 patients who were examined by pulse and continual fluoroscopy during angiography of lower limbs arteries at Cardio angiographic department of Faculty hospital in Motol. Conclusions make out advantage of pulse fluoroscopy, of digital postprocessing of images iclusive of 3D imaging and they confirmed hypothesis of ionizing radiation{\crq}s dose and carload of contrast medium. By conclusions of this work I suggest to take care of new imaging technics by invasive digital angiography and insert these knowledges to system of lifelong learning of radiologic assistants.

Thracian conception of death and funeral observance
Fiedler, Dušan ; Musil, Jiří (referee) ; Bouzek, Jan (advisor)
Thracian conception of death and funeral observance remains unclear though we know many characteristics about their ways of thinking and views they had. These concepts formed their attitude to religion, cult and no less to life. One of the most spectacular expression of such beliefs are tumuli and cult buildings. lt is believed to be a sepulchre for departed - after death a tribal leader became a benefactory hero. He was believed to protect his tribe and in some cases Thracians used to attend well known sanctuaries of such heroes to engage prophecies. Of course, not all deceased became tacitly heroized ancestors but we suppose that they were buried according to such traditions (these tombs served more likely as family cult buildings, i.e. cult building at Propada). A small number of barrows was rebuilt in a cult complex as heraion, oracle etc .. They served as sanctuaries where mythical heroes (demigods) were worshiped. These sanctuaries (Sborjanovo, Miškova Niva etc.) were systematicaly planned according to Thracian principles and cosmology. Orphism and Pythagoreism partook heavily in these conceptions manifested in ground plans of tumuli and cult buildings, decoration and overal! design.

Optimalizace metod hormonální indukce ovulace u hospodářsky významných druhů ryb
ŠVINGER, Viktor William
Extensive asynchrony of sexual maturation is characteristic of salmonid females, and, for various reasons, the spawning season can be extended for 4 months, although it generally extends over a 3 week to 2 month period, as in brook trout and northern whitefish. In aquaculture, to ensure high fertilization and egg survival rates, it is recommended that identification of ovulating females be undertaken at least twice weekly. This is time-consuming when keeping large numbers of broodstock with an extended spawning season, and risk of stress damage to fish increases. Ensuring sufficient Arctic grayling broodstock relies on capture of wild animals from natural waters before onset of the spawning season. Capture and long-term holding of wild stocks is associated with high pre-spawning mortality. Due to the high ovulation synchronizing effect, GnRHa is practical for induction of ovulation 1?1.5 months prior to the natural spawning season. This work focused on optimization of methods of hormone-controlled reproduction using GnRHa in brook trout, northern whitefish, and Arctic grayling from Siberia. Because this is the first report of use of GnRHa in these species, emphasis was on optimization of the hormone dose and delivery method along with assessment of effects of GnRHa treatment on postspawning broodstock mortality, egg size, and egg viability. As in other salmonids, GnRHa treatment effectively synchronizes the onset of ovulation in brook trout and northern whitefish. This gives accurate information about ovulatory status of the broodstock and enables planning of the stripping schedule. The most convenient methods were the double acute injection at 25 ?g.kg-1 ?-Arg6,Pro9-NHEt-sGnRHa administered 3 days apart and injection of 25 ?g.kg-1 of emulsified ?-Arg6,Pro9-NHEt-sGnRHa in Freund´s incomplete adjuvant, which prolongs and more effectively stimulates LH secretion and requires only a single injection. Double acute injection at 10 ?g.kg-1 of ?-Tle6,Pro9-NHEt-mGnRHa (Supergestran) was sufficient to induce ovulation in Arctic grayling 1?1.5 months prior to natural spawning, and enabled accelerated stripping and return of wild broodstock to their natural habitat. Single acute injection proved to be ineffective or unreliable in most cases and therefore cannot be recommended. No negative effect of GnRHa or GnRHa-FIA treatments on post-spawning mortality of broodstock was observed. It has to be noted that that to the extent of law Nr. 166/1999 statute book (Czech veterinary law)injective procedures can be carried out just by the veterinarian or by a verinarian-authorized person in veterinarian presence. GnRHa treatment has side-effects and alters egg quality. Apart from in brook trout, egg survival was significantly lower (5?20%) in treated females. Increased hormone dose did not influence egg survival at the levels tested. Egg and hatchling size was lower in treated females compared to untreated specimens irrespective of dose or hormone delivery method. Reduced egg size is, however, not the likely source of reduced viability. In general, our results corroborate results of studies dealing with assessment of effects of hormone treatment on egg quality. Based on current experimental designs it is impossible to identify the cause of the side-effects with certainty. Solving this problem should be priority for future research.

The new expressive words (based on Czech and Bulgarian language of press)
Nisheva, Bozhana
The paper focuses on new expressive nouns of the masculine grammatical gender used in the language of Czech and Bulgarian press over the last twenty years. Based on synchronic contrastive analysis, it deals with the most frequent word-formation models of Czech and Bulgarian expressive words. Attention is also paid to word-formation ways, models and means used at the formation of new expressive neologisms. The expressivity of neologisms is conceived of as a result of word-formation means combinations with different genetic and communication-style features, thus modifications of literary and non-literary word-formation formants are concerned as well as the exercitation of native and taken over (international) word-formation elements within a single word. In the paper, the expressivity of new words is discussed as an indivisible part of their word-formation meaning and, in compliance with the theory of J. Zima, it is termed as inherent expressivity.

French holocaust literature: testimonies on (not) experienced
Machovská, Veronika ; Jamek, Václav (referee) ; Voldřichová - Beránková, Eva (advisor)
The World War II represents a huge turning point in the modern history of humankind. Its particularity, which consists first of all in the system of concentration camps and the genocide of Jewish people, caused the creation of a new literary genre - the Holocaust literature. The objective of this thesis is to present this specific genre, its origins and evolution in France, as well as its most important French authors. The first part of the thesis tries to elucidate some of the particular aspects of this literature. It speaks not only about the influence of history and evolution of the postwar society on this genre or about questions that are closely associated with it, but also about the difficulty to define the holocaust literature itself. From a number of definitions that exist, we have chosen for the purposes of this thesis the one that includes all the texts on the concentration camps and the Holocaust (even the fictional ones) under the condition that they have an artistic, literary quality. The second part of the thesis presents an overview of the evolution of the French Holocaust literature and its writers. We speak about the authors of the first generation (mostly the survivors, for example Robert Antelme, David Rousset, Elie Wiesel or Charlotte Delbo) as well as about the authors of the second...

Cabalka, Martin ; Chlapek, Dušan (advisor) ; Palovská, Helena (referee)
The aim of this thesis is to analyze basic technological principles of in-memory database systems, followed by a market research and selection of the products, which will be submitted to the qualitative comparison in a number of proposed criteria. Afterwards, there will be also explored the possibility of a performance measuring through the implementation of TPC-C benchmark, created at University of economics in Prague. In the introduction are outlined the circumstances and advantages, which support one of actual trends in database systems -- in-memory database systems. In the third chapter are described the most usual models of present database systems. This is followed by a next chapter, where are described technological principles of in-memory database systems. In chapter five are compared advantages and disadvantages of disc and in-memory systems and subsequently, the most common myths about in-memory databases are disproved. In a next part the in-memory database market is analyzed and criterions for choosing compared products are defined. Those products are subsequently compared, according to criterions defined in a chapter nine. In the last part is analyzed a possibility of a performance comparison of chosen products through the selected implementation of TPC-C benchmark. The most important outcome of this thesis is a complex analyze of in-memory database systems. Both from theoretical point of view, as well as from practical testing of chosen systems from proposed criterions.
