Creation and evaluation of Psycho-training programme on base of yoga techniques for endurance runners.
RAŠKOVÁ, Martina
I would like to write my Bachelor Thesis about the development and evaluation of the psycho-training program, based on yoga techniques for endurance runners. The participants of the program consist of 8 male runners and 2 female runners form 26 to 42 years old. The runners group is focused on long-distance runners. All of the runners passed the entrance psychological tests before start of the program. The psychological training program was running for 3 month and consists of 12 lessons. Every lesson takes 90 minutes. The runners filled the outcome tests after the program. I used following methods: Self-perception scale POP (VÁLKOVÁ, 1995), Method of unfinished sentences (VÁLKOVÁ, 1995), POMS ? Profile of Mood States (Czech version MAN, STUCHLÍKOVÁ, HAGTVET, 2005), Free notice (SKALKOVÁ, 1983). The acquired data confirmed that the psychological training brings positive impact on psychological resistance of the participants during the longtime stress. It is useful for improving of concentration, relaxation of muscle pressure after performance, better self-conscious and higher stamina. On summary we can state that regular yoga training brings all-purpose positive impact on human being.

The significance of free Time for the life´s quality of persons with Optic Handicap.
HESSOVÁ, Jana
The bachelor thesis addresses the importance of leisure time for the quality of life of people with visual impairment. Leisure time has the same importance for the target group as it has for the majority. It brings relaxation, physical and mental relief and stress reduction. Leisure time also plays an important role in casual and informal integration. Sports activities constitute an ideal tool for involvement and integration of individuals with visual impairment into the society. These activities have a considerable benefit in the prevention of secondary impacts in individuals with visual impairment. The theoretical part consists of three main chapters. The first section defines the term ?quality of life.? The second section of the theoretical part addresses the term ?visual impairment.? The final section of the theoretical part defines the term ?leisure time?. The practical part of the bachelor thesis contains research objectives and research questions. The data were collected in a qualitative procedure, using the technique of a structured interview with open-ended questions. The research set consisted of four respondents with visual impairment from the region of České Budějovice. The objective of the bachelor thesis is to perform a qualitative research to introduce sports activities as a possible tool of prevention of secondary impacts of visual impairment. The above stated objective has two sub-objectives. A qualitative procedure was selected for achieving the objectives of the practical part of the bachelor thesis. The research took place through structured interviews with open-ended questions. The data collected from the respondents helped me to answer the below stated research questions. Research question No. 1: What is the importance of sports activities from the view of an individual with visual impairment? It is possible to state that the main benefit of sports activities for all the respondents is the improvement of both mental and physical condition, wellbeing and stress relief. These activities have a positive effect in the area of relieving the tension and having fun, and contribute to the feeling of living the day to the fullest. Research question No. 2: What sports activities do the respondents with visual impairment perform? The qualitative research has clearly shown that the sports activity most commonly performed by the respondents is swimming, followed by hiking and riding a tandem bike. Research question No. 3: Why do the respondents with visual impairment not perform sports activities in their leisure time? Ascertain the reasons. The qualitative analysis of the collected data has shown that the obstacles for performing sports activities in leisure time have an external nature. The reasons are either organizational problems or absence of assistance or guiding services. It has followed from the conclusions derived in relation to the first sub-objective that according to the analyzed individuals, the most common obstacle for performing sports activities is a limited availability of assistance. Another obstacle for performing the activities is their costs and problems with accessibility by transport. The outputs obtained in relation to the second sub-objective have proven that a very beneficial and preferred activity of the research set is swimming. Other sports activities conducted by them are hiking and riding a tandem bike. The analysis has shown that these activities have a positive effect particularly on the locomotor system. All these activities have a great benefit for the prevention of secondary impacts in individuals with visual impairment. The bachelor thesis may be used as a study material for the students of related branches due to the narrow specialization of the thesis in the branch of special education of people with visual impairment.

Influence of various systems on housing and breeding of dairy cattle
DUBOVÁ, Dagmar
The trend in development of new technologies and machinery in the area of agriculture and animal husbandry shows an increasing number of robotized operations. Such trend mostly appears in dairy cattle breeding, which has its logical explanation due to the fact that high ratio of human labour in milk production is more than obvious. The basic prerequisite for a successful utilization of milking robotic systems is to provide dairy cattle with sufficient quantity of top quality food and water as well as to ensure their welfare. The aim of the bachelor?s work was to compare the influence of both stanchion housing using a milking pipeline method and loose housing with robotic milking system on basic categories of dairy cattle behaviour, milk efficiency and reproduction. The observation itself was executed in each housing system for the period of 24 hours, during which an interval method with a ten-minute interval mode was used. Basic life activity of dairy cattle such as: feed intake, standing, lying and movement were monitored. All data were collected and assessed under running conditions on a private dairy farm owned by Václav Dub in Boubín near Horažďovice. The task was carried out in a reconstructed housing, where both systems are in operation. During the day, the dairy cattle remained mostly in a lying position, from which 50,33 % were kept in stanchion housing and 49,54 % in loose housing. When being housed in a standing position, 23,78 % of the dairy cattle paid attention to feeding and 27,05 % of dairy cattle were robotically milked. Standing position represented 25,89 % in stanchion housing and 19,31 % in loose housing. The movement was only monitored with dairy cattle housed in free housing representing 4,1 %. After the milk efficiency was assessed, there were some statistically significant differences (P?0,001) found in milked milk as well as in a kilogram of protein. With respect to reproduction, the length of the insemination interval was recorded showing 129 days when being stanchion housed and 95 days when loose housed. The length of the service period of dairy cattle in stanchion housing was 144 days while dairy cattle milked robotically showed the length of 109 days. All in all, it was proved that a free movement has a positive influence on the milk efficiency, fertility as well as the welfare of dairy cattle.

Quality of life of seniors hospitalized in long-term care.
DOLEJŠOVÁ, Markéta
The basic theoretical basis: According to demographic development the average and maximum lifespan prolongs. Therefore global population spends a bigger part of adulthood in their old age. This phenomenon is irreversible and brings significant changes into global geriatric nursing and we need to take note of the care that is provided to old patients. The seniors form an irreplaceable and a more and more considerable part of population, they create a varied group with individual needs, priorities and demands in sickness as in health. It is the very polymorbidity of senior patients which is often the reason for a long-term hospitalization. Nowadays, for these purposes more and more beds are built in long-term care facilities (LTCF) which are officially defined as specialized medical institutions which provide care to patients whose health states cannot be substantially improved by any medical treatment as they worsen without a continuous care. The life quality of seniors and the quality of the provided care in these facilities are the main long-term care level indicators. The goals of the thesis: 1) Ascertain the life quality of seniors hospitalized in long-term care institutions. The research questions: 1) How does the hospitalization of seniors in LTCF influence their subjectively perceived quality of life? 2) In which areas do seniors hospitalized in LTCF feel the difference of life quality in LTCF and at home? 3) How are the patients in LTCF satisfied with the quality of health care? 4) Within the rise of seniors' life quality in LTCF, in which areas should the nurse improve the provided care? Methods employed: For the empirical part of the thesis the qualitative analysis of gathered data method was used. The data accumulation was implemented by semi-structured interviews with clients-patients hospitalized in LTCF. The instructions for the interviews were adopted from a QOL Research Unit life quality model of the university in Toronto. This model emphasizes the individual's relations towards the surroundings and the possibilities of maintaining and improving skills. It is divided into 3 categories - existence, togetherness and adaptability. Interview transcriptions create a part of the thesis on an enclosed CD. For illustrative purposes, the results of the research were transformed into mind maps using the XMind software. There are also annotations with respondents' quotations concerning individual map as a part of the thesis. The results: The analysis of in-depth interview gathered information brought several factors which are highly subjective and have a logical level of individuality. The results concerning the research of the seniors' life quality dimensions are more or less in agreement with the basic division found in professional literature. However, they bring a further view on these dimensions and introduce subjective opinions, wishes and evaluation of seniors who found themselves in unknown environment of LTCF. The positive influence of nurses, which often impact the satisfaction of seniors in a medical institution, proved its importance. However, it was the area of communication skills of medical staff which was mentioned as lacking or insufficient. Also the fields of free time activities, seniors' adaptation in LTCF and social isolation were found to be neglected. Conclusion: The long-term care becomes, thanks to demographic development, the most rapidly evolving kind of health care. The emphasis on life quality of hospitalized seniors, as their biggest consumers, should be a matter of course for every medical and social facility. The contribution of the thesis is in detailed mapping of the issue of life quality in LTCF, warning against lack in health care and the neglected fields of life quality.

Protected designation of "Czech beer" and its position on the Czech market
POLANECKÝ, Lukáš
The aim of this diploma thesis is protected designation of "Czech beer" and its position on the domestic market through a questionnaire survey, awareness of the Czech population on the identification of products brand "Czech beer". In this thesis discussed the individual protected designation indicating the legislative rules that protected these markings define and put into effect. They included specific requirements for granting a protected geographical indication (CHZO) "Czech beer", specifying the requirements for the individual raw materials, production technology and inspection of products bearing this mark. In the practical part of the work was carried out a questionnaire survey which aims to map the awareness of the Czech population CHZO "Czech beer". The questionnaire survey showed that about half of the respondents are aware of the use of the "protected geographical indication". More than half marking "Czech beer" does not know, and only 10 % of respondents knew that the name "Czech beer is protected geographical indications of the European Union, whose purpose is to preserve the good name and quality of the beer produced in the Czech Republic. In particular, the importance of this label, why is introducing some breweries and why do you ask for, it seems to be a distinct people known. But itself idea of the product specifications marked "Czech beer" had only half of the respondents. The questionnaire survey shows that citizens of the Czech Republic should be more informed about the nature of implementation of protected designations in general, but also should be more familiar with the specifics of each label used. It is our aim not only food producers but also merchants that consumers are aware of the importance and promotion of products that are made in the Czech Republic, from local materials and traditional techniques. The positive impulse not only the questionnaire survey, but also as a stimulus for food manufacturers, retailers and other subjects can be perceived "consumer behaviour" of the majority , the majority of respondents - 82% would prefer when buying products labeled "Czech beer".

Intervention motion program in the elderly living in homes for the elderly.
ZAHRÁDKOVÁ, Kamila
The objective of this bachelor thesis is to evaluate the health condition parameters and value ladders of senior citizens participating in the intervention mobility program and to assess the impact of adequate physical activity on their general wellness and value orientation. The opening chapter of the bachelor thesis deals with the general problems of aging and old age, elaborating on the individual concepts and contingencies that invariably accompany these issues. The next part of the thesis details certain relevant facts about homes for the elderly, comparing care for the elderly in the past and today. Furthermore, the first part of the thesis focuses on intervention mobility programs, describing what these programs are about, what is considered adequate physical activity, and what role the retention of mobility plays in the life of the elderly in general. The second part of the bachelor thesis concentrates on processing the concrete data and results acquired in the course of the intervention mobility program organized in a home for the elderly. Upon completing the intervention mobility program, we can say that the program did have positive effects, but not in all of the parameters measured. In other words, while certain health condition parameters and value orientation parameters did reach the desired results, others recorded practically no improvement at al.

Effectiveness of services in municipality - construction of a new bypass
POVONDROVÁ, Jana
This thesis presents evaluation of effectiveness of selected public services in the village Lukavec. Individual public services are described and evaluated in terms of importance for citizens and in terms of funding from municipal budget. The level of most services is satisfactory but transport infrastructure is a complication in the village. High frequency of passing transport, mostly heavy trucks, causes burden to a community. A solution to the traffic situation is the proposed construction of a bypass of the village. The new construction should have a positive impact on the community and improve the quality of life in the village.

The testing of celiac disease in connection with osteoporosis
SLADKÁ, Romana
My Bachelor´s thesis deals with the examination of celiac disease in connection to osteoporosis. The aim of the thesis was to specify the level of antidotes against tissue transglutaminase in the class IgA and IgG in the serum with osteoporosis diagnosed patients, to interpret, based on the results of the study, possible link between osteoporosis and celiac disease as well as to compare the outcome with scientific data. I focused on the present knowledge of osteoporosis and celiac disease in the first part. As for celiac disease, I described its history and characteristics. I also paid attention to diagnostics of celiac disease with the assistance of laboratory serological tests ELISA. I mentioned the free-gluten diet treatment after that. As regards osteoporosis, I described its history, symptoms, forms, perils and complications which the disease causes. I conducted the methodical part of my work in the biochemical haematological laboratory Stafila where I work, with its seat in České Budějovice. As for measurements, I took them in the department of microbiology, where immunologic tests are also taken. I carried out the screening of celiac disease from serum, namely the determination of antidotes against tissue transglutaminase in the class IgA and IgG, with the aid of ELISA - a sandwich method. I took measurements with 58 osteoporosis diagnosed patients. I obtained the sera thanks to the supervisor of my thesis Mrs. Marie Ládová, who is at the head of an osteological outpatient department in České Budějovice. I stated the serological markers of celiac disease with the assistance of enzymatic immunoanalysis conducted on automatic analyzer Nexgen Four, which was provided by the firm Test-Line. I describe the analyzer, its specification, checking and calibration of the gadget together with determination checks in this part of the thesis. Additionally, there is described the principle of the method ELISA- sandwich, which is non-competitive enzymatic immunoanalysis. At the end of the section there is depicted the methodical procedure of my work, the preparation of working solutions and checks, the preparation and dilution of samples for analysis and working procedure for semiquantitative interpretation with positivity index and for quantitative interpretation U/ml. I continued with my own measurements. while respecting standard operations procedures of the laboratory Stafila, a limited liability company. The results of my measurements are processed in the third part of the thesis. The acquired results are given in a table: quantitative interpretation of the antidote against tTg IgA and IgG (U/ml) level in the sera of the osteoporosis diagnosed patients. Then I presented a graph interpreting the proportional relation of the antidote against tTg IgA and IgG levels in the sera of the osteoporosis diagnosed patients. There are included calibration graphs for tissue transglutaminase IgA and IgG and tables of the obtained data of checks for the methods in the results. 3 out of the 58 examined samples of osteoporotic patients were positive, they had the level of antibodies higher than 22 U/ml. One of the samples had marginal figures, which means it had the antidotes against tTg IgA an IgG between 18 and 22 U/ml. Positive results were found with patients born in 1976 and 1978. A patient born in 1962 appeared to have a marginal result. The acquired antidote figures against tissue transglutaminase in the class IgA and IgG are presented proportionally in the graph 1. 3 out of the 58 measured samples were positive, which represents 5%, and 1 sample was marginal, which is 2%. My analysis is based on the availability of the examined material and the potential of our laboratory. Celiac disease is an illness which was not paid much attention to in the past. Hypothesis about the link between osteoporosis and celiac disease has been proved.
