Walking dysfunction in multiple sclerosis
Doležalová, Vendula ; Řasová, Kamila (advisor) ; Zimová, Denisa (referee)
In this study, we tried to find out what information we will get through the walk tests, if the walk tests provide different information for people with varying severity of the disease. From July to August 2009, patients with multiple sclerosis passed a cerebrospinal investigation carried out by two trained students from the 3rd Medical Faculty of Charles University. The whole study conducted in collaboration with MS Center Neurological Clinic of the Faculty Hospital in Královské Vinohrady. The results were evaluated in MS Excel with a help of functions descriptive statistics and CORREL. Overall it was demonstrated that short walk tests (Up and Go, 25 feet, 10 m fast, 10 m slowly) better reflect the impact of the muscle strength, fatigue and Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS). Between the 6-minute test and the Paced Auditory Serial Addition Test (PASAT) was also demonstrated relatively high value of dependence.

Analysis of change from baseline to post-intervention value
Pacáková, Andrea ; Hlávka, Zdeněk (referee) ; Kulich, Michal (advisor)
The aim of the present work is to compare three di erent estimators of a treatment e ect in clinical randomized studies. The purpose of these studies is to compare the change of a distribution of certain variable between two attendances. Mentioned estimators were developed from the assumption of validity of some model. In this work we gather properties of the estimators when each of all given models is valid. We deal with the consistency of the estimators and with their asymptotic distributions and then we compare the estimators on the basis of their asymptotic variances. In the most of cases is possible to make the comparison in general. In the case when it is not possible, we show a few particular examples. Eventually, we accomplish the simulation study, which certi es theoretical conclusions and extends pieces of knowledge in the cases when it was not possible to make theoretical computation in general.

Computer naratology: narrative templates in computer games
Praks, Vítězslav ; Hrbata, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Češka, Jakub (referee) ; Kubíček, Tomáš (referee)
Relations and actions between literature and computer games were examined. Study contains theoretical analysis of game as an aesthetic artefact. To play a game means to leave practical world for sake of a fictional world. Artistic communication has more similarities with game communication than with normal, practical communication. Game study can help us understand basic concepts of art communication (game rules - poetic rules, game world - fiction, function in game - meaning in art). Computer games are interpreted in the study using naratological and ludological approach. Computer is tracted as a narrative medium (to narrate means to demonstrate, to present any content, not only epic content). Computer games are interesting phoenomena for its specifical aspects: interactivity, self-narration and computer simulated narration. Main attention in this study is focused on phoenomena of computer generated literature (prose and poetry). The main purpose of this area is in study considered for literary analysis of "belles lettres". Author examines and demonstrates plausible computer generated fiction analysis of narrative texts. Two such analysis are proposed in a study, one of them (prose analysis - fabule generation) is detaily manifested on concrete literary text.
