A B S T R A C T This thesis analyzes the impact of the economic crisis in 1929-1934 on the Jablonec glass making with main attention to the district Železný Brod. One of the main causes of decline of the Czechoslovak glass industry in the first half of the 30s of 20th century was formed by pro-export focus. The region of Železný Brod and Jablonec nad Nisou had represented sites with major export, production and refining of glass that were for this reason by the economic crisis strongly affected.

Šmíd, Petr ; Čechura, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Hrachová, hana (referee)
Capital jurisdiction, criminality and everyday life on domain of Náchod and in king's town Nymburk between the years 1513-1618 In this diploma paper I dealt with criminality and everyday life on the early modern domain of Náchod and in the king's town Nymburk between the years 1513-1620. Firstly I tried to describe how the town councils worked and with which central regulations they operated. Secondly I did the statistic quatification of all criminal delicts which are mentioned in "pitch" or "black" books of Náchod and Nymburk and other materials of court provenance. Then I compared court causes from other "pitch"/ "black" books which were published in the past with material from Náchod's and Nymburk's archive. I managed to use modern historical methods such as microhistory and historical anthropology to show which postures took early modern society to different types of criminal delicts or problematic phenomenona like sexual life before marriage, suicide, rape or witchcraft. In connection with this I tried to clear up why were criminal delicts like infanticide or witchcraft punished with such a brutal death penalty. As well as this I attempted to describe in details the fact that punishment was not irreversible. The town council was very open to requests of mercy especially if a priest or a clerk of local...

Health and social risks in children predisposed to metabolic syndrome
SLADKÁ, Alena
Metabolic syndrome was defined for the first time in 1988 by Reaven, who defined it as a hormonal-metabolic syndrome - with symptoms of resistance to insulin , hyperinzulinismus, hypertension and with laboratory-proven higher level of lipoproteid VLDL and lower level of HDL and LDL cholesterol. Obese children have big troubles concerning social relationships. Overweight children are often an object of ridicule, teasing, verbal bullying, physical bullying, cyberbullying and sexual abuse. First goal of this thesis is to find out, whether obesity (mainly of android type) in children and adolescents (aged 10-18) having BMI higher than 28 and waist size for boys over 103 and for girls over 93, overall cholesterol level over 6,5, blood pressure higher than 130/70 are predispositions of manifestation of MS in adulthood and to find out what are the social and health impacts of the obesity in the childhood. Second goal of this thesis is to find out, whether patients with metabolic syndrome (MS) had predispositions for obesity or were obese in the childhood and what are the health and social impacts of MS in their life. The first research group consisted of ten children aged 10-18 with predispositions to manifestation of MS. Methods of accomplishing goals of this thesis: Survey of health and family anamnesis. All ten children aged 10-18 were repeatedly checked during six mounths for their body weight, waist size, blood pressure and cholesterol. Surveyed values are shown in the table. I Used a structured interview to survey relationships of obese ones with same-age children, whether they are an object of ridicule and bullying and what are other troubles caused by the disease. At the same time I gave questionnaires to parents to ascertain the eating habits and life style of the family. Health and social impacts for life of people with diagnosed MS, when they were diagnosed MS and their childhood condition were examined using structured interviews in the metabolic advice centre. The research group consisted of ten patiensts of metabolic advice centre. After analysis of data and health anamnesis it was proven that 60% of researched children suffer from higher morbidity (breathing issues, upper respiratory tract infection, and easier fatigue during physical exertion). 60% of children have serious issues to establish relationships and suffer from verbal and physical bullying. 40% of adult patients of metabolic advice centre had troubles with obesity already in their childhood. All of them suffer from type 1 diabetes. Two of them recieve disability pension due to MS. 90% of them told, that they regulary go see a doctor und regulary take cures. These facts cause worse financial situation (lower income, expenses for cures and travel to a doctor). Two respondents mentioned discriminating behaviour of medical staff, however they didn't mention the type of discrimination. According to the questionaries only one person considers the MS is caused by his lifestyle. Research group consisted all the time of ten children and ten adults with MS, because 'Snowball sampling' research methods didn't survey any new facts, which would be needed to verify.
