Ecology and courtship behaviour of the wolf spider genus Alopecosa (Araneae: Lycosidae)
Just, Pavel ; Dolejš, Petr (advisor) ; Žďárek, Jan (referee)
In my bachelor thesis, Czech members of the wolf spider genus Alopecosa are discussed. Literature review summarizes our knowledge in ecology of wolf spiders, their life histories, phenology and habitat preference. I concentrated on reproduction of wolf spiders of the genus Alopecosa, especially on their courtship behavior. Recently, spider courtship is studied with focus on multimodal signalling. The review also contains remarks about spiders life cycles, copulation and parental care. Research of courtship of the genus Alopecosa is sligthly neglected, especially when we consider achievements gained by study of the American wolf spiders of the genus Schizocosa. It is necessary to know the taxonomy of the genus Alopecosa, thus some taxonomical remarks about current systematics and phylogeny of family Lycosidae are outlined

Carbapenemases and their molecular genetic detection in bacteria causing severe hospital acquired infections
Vavrová, Jolana ; Dřevínek, Pavel (advisor) ; Zikánová, Blanka (referee)
The aim of this study is to characterize β-lactamases that hydrolyze carbapenems. They belong to molecular classes A, B and D and their new variations are still being identified. The production of enzymes hydrolyzing β-lactam antibiotics is common among Gram-negative bacteria which include also serious nosocomial pathogens such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Acinetobacter baumannii or members of Enterobacteriaceae family. The importance of the carbapenemases in clinical practice underlines the fact that carbapenems are broad-spectrum antibiotics, which are considered the reserve antibiotics. An increase in the number of cases of the carbapenem resistance is caused mainly by spread of genes encoding carbapenemases. Detection of carbapenemases and surveillance of their occurrence are both essential not only for optimal management of patients' care, but also for control of the spread of bacterial strains producing carbapenemases.

Flexible working hours account within the Škoda Auto a.s.
Bydžovská, Kateřina ; Štefko, Martin (advisor) ; Kotous, Jan (referee)
The aim of my master`s thesis was to approach the issue of working hours as one of the most important working conditions, and its special arrangements known as flexible working hours account. The basis of working hours is contained the Labour Code 262/2006. Working hours are often decisive factor for selecting employment. Mothers welcome the opportunity to negotiate a shorter working time. They can properly take care of their children as well as go to work. Today is very popular flexible working hours. The thesis is devoted to working hours, both at an international and European level. These regulations have a considerable influence on the Czech regulation of working time. ILO conventions have priority over the Czech law. From the 1st May 2004 is the Czech Republic member of the European Union and it implies an obligation to bring Czech legal regulation into conformity with European Union regulation. For regulation of working hours are important judgements of the European Court of Justice. The most important judgements are mentioned in the thesis (e.g. Jaeger, SIMAP). These judgements had big influence on definitions of working hours in Labour Codes of the Member States. Czech Labour Code respects these decisions as well as the Council Directive 2003/88/EC on some aspects of organization of the...

Kleinová, Mariana ; Dragomirecká, Eva (advisor) ; Bankovská Motlová, Lucie (referee)
diplomové práce Psychoedukace rodinných příslušníků osob s dlouhodobým duševním onemocněním Psychoeducation of family members of people with severe mental disorder Mariana Kleinová Obor: sociální práce Vedoucí diplomové práce: PhDr. Eva Dragomirecká, Ph.D. Oponent diplomové práce: doc. MUDr. Lucie Motlová Bankovská, Ph.D. Serious mental illness has an impact not only on the quality of life of the mentally ill person but also on his family. In the near past the family was mainly seen as the one to blame for the mental illness or a cause of stress and relapse. Today the role of the family as a carer and the need to cooperate with he family is emphasised. Professionals are trying to find ways to help relatives to cope with their situation. Families may find support and help in self help organizations, in family therapy or psychoeducation or other family based interventions. In the theoretical part of this work I shortly described the problematic of deintitucionalization of psychiatric care, changes in the concept of family as a risk factor for the genesis or progress of mental illness, the role of the family in treatment and rehabilitation, caregiver burden and needs of the family members of people with mental illness. Further I concentrated on family interventions as a method to work with and support...

The Comparative Analysis of the Mapping of Deprived Urban Areas
Souček, Vojtěch ; Guri, Durmish (advisor) ; Dohnalová, Marie (referee)
The dissertation is a comparative analysis focussing on the issue of deprived urban areas in two EU member states - the Great Britain and the Czech Republic. The common link is the mapping of these areas. The dissertation is structured into two main parts - Theoretical and Empirical. The Theoretical part is divided into four main parts, called the thematic blocks. The first block is devoted to the terminology and definitions concerning the deprived areas. The second block focuses on an European-wide project concerning the deprived areas and their mapping, called the European Learning Network (LNet). third block where the mapping of deprived urban areas, the government policy and the examples of good practices are described, is devoted to the Great Britain. The fourth block is aimed on the Czech republic, with the same structure as the chapter before - mapping of deprived urban areas, government policy on this issue, good practice examples and finally the survey carried out among the relevant institutions and its outputs are presented. The Empirical part is the comparison of the Great Britain and the Czech Republic approaches to the issue of deprived urban areas.

Comparison of paliative care by clients in hospice establishment and oncology department
KADLECOVÁ, Ivana
Comparison of palliative care for patients in a hospice and at an oncology ward This thesis was focused on the various aspects of palliative care for oncological patients. Palliative care and its principles have been defined and it seems crucial to apply these principles not only in hospices but also at hospital wards where there are patients indicated for palliative care. The objective of this thesis was to find out whether the care provided to hospice clients and to dying patients at hospital oncological wards corresponds to the methods and procedures defined for palliative care and to find out whether there are any significant differences between the nursing care provided to the dying in a hospice and the dying at an oncology hospital ward. Four survey questions were formulated and the question dealt with maintaining palliative care standards, differences in providing palliative nursing care for the dying at the individual institutions, whether the dying clients{\crq} needs are answered in a holistic and humane way, and the nurses{\crq} approach to the dying at the individual institutions. The carried out research is a qualitative one. The research part {--} data collection {--} was carried out in the form of uncontrolled interviews with selected members of nursing teams in a hospice and at an oncology ward. Observations and case reports were used in case of several patients in at the individual institutions. The research was carried out in St Stephen Hospice in Litoměřice and at the oncology ward of an undisclosed health care institution by which information was provided in exchange for absolute anonymity. The research part resulted in the finding that the palliative care provided in the hospice corresponds to the methods and procedures defined for palliative care. There are efforts at the oncology ward to provide as perfect care for their dying patients as possible but this care does not correspond to the methods and procedures defined for palliative care. There are problems in providing palliative care especially in inadequate spatial conditions, equipment, shortages, high workloads, and strictly specialized focus of the personnel and these clients need very individual care that cannot be frequently provided under everyday operating conditions at a standard ward that concentrates primarily on curative care. The results of this thesis will be provided to those who may be interested in the various aspects of palliative care.

To become a member of a first class: the child's adaptation to rules valid in the first class
Hončíková, Lucie ; Štětovská, Iva (referee) ; Viktorová, Ida (advisor)
Beginning of a school atlendance creates one of very important moments in the chilď s life. Changes, which appear in this period, refer to aU parts of a chilď s life and mean an interference to a family life as well. In our diploma project we have aimed on a process of adaptation of a child to rules valid at school, which she/he meets in the first term of a school year. We have focused expeciaUy on the running ofthis process and on mechanisms it is determined by. In the theoretical part we have explained the problematics of the life at school in the first class and we have defined the basic concepts related to the early beginning of the school atlendance which we have worked later with. In a practical part we have firstly classified and then described every rule and the categories of rules and norms. Then we have observed the running of the process of adaptation of children to school norms separately in every month of the first term. After that we have compared the results. We have created the global picture of the process of adaptation as we have noticed it in our research. To reach our goal we have decided to choose mostly a technigue of observation of pupils in the chosen class. This technigue we have completed by directed interviews with pupils as weU as with their trachet and by other materials.
