Radiation doses from low-dose CT in patients and medical staff by SPECT/CT
Kvasilová, Alena ; Nováková, Olga (advisor) ; Skibová, Daniela (referee)
"Low dose" CT (140 keV, 2,5 mA) Hawkeye produces significantly lower intensity of the beam than x-ray diagnostic CT. However, growing interest in hybrid SPECT/CT and the number of examinations require monitoring of additional dose in order to keep patients radiation burden as low as possible. Effective (E) and equivalent (HT) doses in several types of SPECT/CT examinations performed on scintillation camera Infinia/Hawkeye were calculated using "ImPACT CT Patient Dosimetry Calculator". The doses from "low-dose" CT have been compared with those from radionuclides used in SPECT. E values mean±SD (min-max) from "low-dose" CT was 1,86±0,13 (1,73-2,04) mSv in SPECT/CT of myocardial perfusion ( " T c - Myoview), 0,26±0,04 (0,20-0,37) mSv in SPECT/CT of parathyroid glands ("mTc-MIBI) and 0,83±0,52 (0,21-1,73) mSv in SPECT/CT of bone CmTc- MDP). In oncology SPECT/CT examinations, E from "low-dose" CT was 1,07±0,51 (0,45-2,25) mSv using mIn-Octreoscan and 1,16±0,48 (0,54-2,40) mSv using l23I-MIBG. The maximum E from "low-dose" CT was 11% of E from 2200 MBq "mTc-Myoview, 6% of E from 700 MBq "mTc-MIBI and 43% of E from 700 MBq "mTc-MDP. In oncology examinations E from "low-dose" CT was 21% of E from 200 MBq m 1 In-Octreoscan and 92% of E from 200 MBq I-MIBG. "Low-dose" CT does not increase effective doses of staff.

Awareness of university students about the health risks associated with a stay abroad, knowledge and use of possible preventive measures
HANKOVÁ, Hana
The topic of my thesis is foreign travel issues. Its purpose is to survey the awareness of students of the University of South Bohemia about travel risks, while mapping the knowledge and use of available preventive measures. The thesis is divided into two parts, theoretical and practical. In the theoretical part I try to describe in a well arranged way the available knowledge about health risks associated with traveling, including the various forms of prevention. The aim of the practical part is to analyze the obtained data and to determine the awareness of university students about the risks associated with traveling. The survey is based on the methods of prevalence studies conducted using an anonymous questionnaire survey. In total, 652 students of the University of South Bohemia were addressed, the number of returns was 460 questionnaires. In relation to the objectives two hypotheses were proposed. H1: The awareness of students of the Faculty of Health and Social Studies about the health risks associated with a stay abroad is significantly higher than that of students of other faculties of the University of South Bohemia. H2: Statistically, the most important source of information on the knowledge and use of possible prevention measures is the Internet. These hypotheses were statistically evaluated and on the basis of the obtained results they were confirmed or refuted. The research results show that the most informed about the presented issues are students of the Faculty of Science. This fact was later explained by a number of exotic destinations visited during the last stay abroad, as well as a wide offer of the Faculty of globally-oriented practical training and research fellowships, in connection with which the students inform themselves about possible travel risks. Statistically, most of the surveyed students use the Internet to get information. This research became the basis for targeted focus of health education on minimizing health risks when traveling abroad. The real outcome of the thesis is an information poster which will be distributed to individual faculties of the University of South Bohemia.

Management of the property chosen village
Bakaj, Michal ; Sedmihradská, Lucie (advisor)
The Czech Republic is gradually proceeding to fiscal decentralisation in order to assing the responsibility to municipal units. Proportionally to this fact, an increase in importance of municipal budgets and municipal responsibility for disposing of municipal property is expected. The core theme of this bachelor work is an analysis of the property management in municipality Hodice in the period from 2001 to 2007. On the basis of both theoretical and practical knowledge of the chosen field of property management this work deals with a question whether tax revenues of a selected municipality are also sufficient for a municipal property increase and tries to prove the interdependence between total revenues and the property level of a selected municipality.

The temperature and precipitation course in Prague-Karlov, 1961-2010
Střeštík, Jaroslav
The course of temperatures and precipitation in Prague over the last 50 years is presented and compared with scenarios of the further development of the climate. The temperature increased significantly and this increase is more rapid than that of the global temperature. Precipitation totals display only very small decrease over the last 50 years. However, precipitation totals in spring decreased more than the annual sums and a remarkable decrease of days with heavy rainfall takes place. These facts contribute to the observed decrease of the amount of moisture in nature and to the increased occurrence of droughts. There is no indication that all these observed trends could be different in future.

Tax policy of municipalities
Blažková, Tereza ; Sedmihradská, Lucie (advisor) ; Kouba, Tomáš (referee)
This thesis deals with tax on immovable property and local taxes in Cesky Krumlov, Jindrichuv Hradec, Prachatice a Strakonice. The main objective is to evaluate the development of tax income from real estate tax and selected local taxes. Work identifies the reasons for significant changes between these revenues in the years 2002-2015. The greatest differences in revenues of tax on immovable assets in the years 2002-2015 were caused by two major changes in this tax. Specifically, the Law no. 261/2007 Coll., which introduced the possibility to provide the local coefficient of 2, 3, 4 or 5, and thus significantly increase its revenues and the city budget. The most local municipalities have begun to apply the coefficients since 2009. Another significant intervention in the real estate tax was Law no. 362/2009, which doubled tax rates, with effect from January 1st, 2010. The most noticeable growth in the revenues from local tax on dogs appeared between 2003 and 2004, when the city increased local tax rate of dogs because the Law no. 229/2003 Coll., changed maximum tax rate from CZK 1,000 to CZK 1,500. The most significant change in local taxes on waste brought Law no. 174/2012 Coll., which doubled the maximum rate, with effect from January 1st, 2013. But the municipalities were not affected by this change because the cities kept the level of rates to the level of previous years.

Bondarevska, Anna ; Pekárek, Štěpán (advisor) ; Prokop, Jaromír (referee)
This thesis explores the efficiency of the reforms on the labor market of Spain in 2012. The main goal of this work is to evaluate the effectiveness of undertaken reform against its own objectives. Relevance of this topic is that after the Global Financial Crisis of 2008 many country s economic situation significantly worsened. Searching for the way out of the complicated and undesirable economic situation countries applied new reforms and development plans majority of which didnt contribute into the improvement of country s economy. Concerning this fact it appears extremely important to analyze measures undertaken by Spanish government and its efficiency. To evaluate the effect caused by the reforms I have analyzed long-term results of it its influence on the selected indicators and overall unemployment.

The developement of basic income categories in net incomes of Czech households
Svoboda, Lukáš ; Vančurová, Alena (advisor) ; Finardi, Savina (referee)
This thesis is focused on examining the impact of income taxes on social groups of employees and pensioners in comparison with the aggregate population between years 2004 and 2014 in the Czech Republic. The measurement was accomplished based on measurements of global progression and effective tax rates from SILC. The results show that the impact of income taxes on the social group of emloyees is slightly progressive in all studied years, the social group of pensioneers has a low rate of income differentiation and is affected the least by income taxes out of all studied groups. The impact of income taxes on the aggregate population is also slightly progressive despite the fact that all studied years show an interval, on which the income taxes are regressive.

Application of project cycle management in a local government
Částková, Barbora ; Potluka, Oto (advisor) ; Fanta, Petr (referee)
This bachelor thesis is called " Application of project cycle management in a local government". It has focused on three specific towns -- Pardubice, Hradec Králové and Liberec. It has examined, whether they apply the project cycle as part of their policy of using grants from the European Union. The thesis has compared the successfulness of individual towns from different points of view -- how many projects the towns have realized with partnership of the European Union from 2004 to present time, how much money the towns had to invest in these projects, if there is some connection between an amount of budget and a number of projects and so on. It has tried to describe, which way the towns apply for grants, and emphasize the pros and the cons of the concrete system. In all municipalities, the number of staff dealing with European Union increased. All towns apply the similar system, they do not differ significantly from the theory of project cycle. Liberec has implemented the biggest amount of projects, it has also invested the biggest amount of money in the projects.
