Human Capital and Investments in Health
Hrušková, Eva ; Chytil, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Katreniaková, Dagmara (referee)
The thesis deals with the influence of the human health as a part of the human capital on the economic growth. The term human capital and health is defined. The chosen economic models which involve them and illustrate their significance in context of the economic growth are presented. The central signification of the private investments in human health as a possible solution and support of the progressive economic growth is demonstrated on the example of current social and economic trend, the elongating lifespan, and the stagnant growth of the natality. The adverse demographic trend is specific not only for the Czech Republic but also for the other countries of the European Union. It begins to rise above like the significant limiting barrier for the further economic growth. Next, the health endowments are analysed as a natural component of the human capital and a prerequisite for an ensuring of the sustainable economic growth. From the above mentioned evolution the necessity of the health endowments is deduced. The quality of the population health becomes one of the preferences not only for the national governments of the European countries but also for the institutions of the European Union. The aim of this thesis is to quantify the influence of the private investments in human health on economic growth using the real data and the linear regression method.

HPLC analysis of dexrazoxane and its metabolites
Dlouhý, Lukáš ; Kovaříková, Petra (advisor) ; Kučera, Radim (referee)
High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is one of the most used separating methods of instrumental analysis enabling both qualitative and quantitative analysis of substances. Anthracyclines are cytotoxic drugs widely used in clinical practice for treatment of hematological malignancies (leucaemias, lymphoms) and solid tumours (stomach, breast, ovarian cancer). Treatment by these drugs has a serious limiting factor, however. This factor is an anthracycline induced cardiotoxicity, which is caused by hydroxyl radicals and other reactive oxygen forms. The main role in their formation play the complexes with iron. Dexrazoxane is a derivate of bisdioxopiperazine, which is used to reduce the cardiotoxic effect of anthracyclines. It is supposed that it takes effect by the means of its active metabolite ADR-925, which works as a substance chelating iron. This mechanism hinders the iron dependant formation of oxygen radicals. This thesis deals with analysis options of dexrazoxane and its hydrolysis products/metabolites on the stationary phase Ascentis HILIC in conditions compatible with mass spectrometric detection (MS). The best results were achieved in conditions of isocratic elution using mobile phases containing 5 mM ammonium formiate with pH 5 or 7 and acetonitrile in ratio 22:78 (v/v). Mobile...

Working memory in simultaneous interpreting and its capacity
Gabzdilová, Marianna ; Čeňková, Ivana (advisor) ; Rejšková, Jana (referee)
The experimental working memory research in simultaneous interpreting has so far been very limited. There were small number of studies of cognitive processes in simultaneous interpreting. This thesis gives a brief overview of the recent experimental studies in this field and presents the subject of working memory. First part of this thesis shows the largely known theoretical models of working memory, information about its possible developement and its relation towards language. On the basis of the recent theoretical research, we formulated a hypothesis for the empirical part of this thesis. The hypothesis assumes that with interpreting practice there is a developement of working memory capacity and that the language factor becomes less important. In the empirical part of the thesis we described the experiment that had been done to confirm the hypothesis. The experiment consisted of standard listening span task adapted to two language variants, in Czech and in French. Thirty participants took part in this experimental study - 10 professional interpreters, 10 interpreting students and 10 non-interpreters (people without interpreting training and professional interpreting experience). All of the participants had approximately the same language skills in Czech and in French. Czech was the mother tongue of all...

Šedová, Klára ; Grmelová, Nicole (advisor) ; Štěpánek, Petr (referee)
Freedom of movement of workers constitutes right of citizens of the Union to move and reside freely within the territory of Member States for the purpose of employment. But this right is not an absolute one. Bachelor thesis focuses on restrictions which arise out of EC Treaty, such as limitations justified on grounds of public policy, public security and public health or employment in the public service. Other limitations arise out of the disunity of national provisions. In order to reduce such limitations the Council shall adopt provisions for the harmonisation of legislation. It is typical in the process of recognition of diplomas and qualifications. Main legal sources of the bachelor thesis are judgments of the Court of Justice.

Scheme " Heath city"
Valčíková, Šárka ; Wsól, Vladimír (advisor) ; Kvasničková, Eva (referee)
1028 inhabitants of the town Kroměříž were investigated in the project "Healthy Town" in the years 2005, 2006 and 2007. Using acquired data, some epidemiological characteristics of region's inhabitants were evaluated and important experiences were put into preventive clinical practice. The experiences are following: 1. The project "Healthy Town" is not a pilot study. Contact centers are attended by citizens who pay attention to active interest of their health. In this population women and senior citizens dominate, many of them have health problems and the incidence of cardiovascular factors considerably exceeds "the average population". The study has shown that 37% of them are overweight and 13% are obese. 16% of inhabitants have hypertension of over 140/90 mm Hg. 57% suffer from lipid metabolism failure and 14% suffer from hyperglycemia. 2. Then we observed a relationship between BMI index and investigated high risk markers (systolic and diastolic pressure, serum concentration of total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, triglycerides and glucose). We have proved a significant relation between the degree of overweight and values of blood pressure and concentration of triglycerides, and on the other hand we have discovered a statistically insignificant relation between total cholesterol...

The theoretic part of this theses is focused on the brief history, definition and principle of the financial analysis, then on users of the financial analysis and information sources for its realization including the pointing out the limitation of predicative abilities of the accounting data. Understanding of the traditional but also new methods, which are applied within the financial analysis (including the methods of intercompany comparison), is another part of the theoretic definition of the financial analysis. The practical part of the theses deals with the characteristics of T-Mobile company and with processing of the strategic analysis, which put us closer to the outside and inside surroundings of the analysed firm. It is followed by processing of the financial analysis of T-Mobile company (including comparison with its competitors), comments and evaluation of findings and results (including their comparison, where it is possible, with standard (recommended) values or with the "branch average values") and by pointing out strenghts and weaknesses of operations of the analysed company.
