Obesity is multifactorial dissease. Genetics factors participate in its origin of 40-70% (Barsh et al., 2000). Incidence of obesity is associated with a number of complications, which affect quality of life and abbreviate its length. It is projected in constantly younger age and its prevalence in the world grows. Even though several hundred genetics markers associated with obesity have been described, we still do not know all causes, which complicates efficiancy of treatment. Subject of this study was research of selected genes and their polymorphisms: FABP2 (rs1799883) and PLIN (rs1052700 and rs894160). The aim was to establish association between genotypes and antropometric and biochemical parameters related to obesity in group of 299 children and adolescents aged 7-18 years. Next goal was to establish whether these polymorphisms affect success of reduction therapy. SNP associations with antropometric and/or biochemical parameters were evaluated for boys and girls separately. Observed genotype frequencies between sex did not differ and they were in accordance with those explored in other populations. In rs1799883 polymorphism neither association with measured anthropometric and biochemical parameters nor effect on weight loss during reduction therapy have been found. The TT homozygote subjects of...

Paterová, Zuzana ; Hlavatá, Karolína (advisor) ; Vašíčková, Jitka (referee)
The prevalence of obesity in children and adolescents has reached pandemic proportions nowadays. Obese individuals are at risk of cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia, musculoskeletal diseases, etc. Children increasingly live a sedentary lifestyle and consume high-energy food with poor combination of nutrients. In the Czech Republic, however, there exist no comprehensive structure for the fight against child obesity and a lack of meaningful data on the prevalence of obesity in adolescent population. This work is drawn up under the project COPAT. The bachelor's thesis deals with the issue of basic nutrients and their relationship to weight, dietary recommendations for adolescents, the assessment of nutritional status, etiology of obesity and obesity-related complications. The main emphasis is placed on the practical part, which focuses on results of the research, which provides information about dietary habits and behaviour of 100 adolescents in relation to their body weight.

Kořínková, Veronika ; MARUŠÁK, Radek (advisor) ; ULRYCHOVÁ, Irina (referee)
Abstract
The Bachelor thesis describes the preparation and realization of a project that happened during eight drama classes lessons by using methods of drama structuring . These lessons were based on a myth of the Seal woman by Fiona Maclead: Wind and waves and by Clarissa Pinkola Estetes: Women Who Run With the Wolves. The two versions of the same legend are combined with parts written by Scottish playwright Sue Glower from her play The Seal Wife.
Lessons have been specially planned for 2nd and 3rd year students of second grade classes at the Art School of Josefa Kresanka in Bratislava.
Through the fictional story about a seal woman, Rona, students were introduced to the following themes: freedom, pregnancy, parenting, conflict, decision.
This thesis primarily offers the possibility how to work with these themes. It examines how methods of structuring drama can be used when the gender issues are taken into consideration.
