Kompartment syndrome with injuries to the legs and issues from the perspective of patient care
BÁRTOVÁ, Marcela
A complex of clinical symptoms occurring as a consequence of pressure increase in enclosed anatomic space is called the compartment syndrome. We must pay great attention to this diagnostics as local ischemia occurs and sometimes fasciotomy is indicated during compartment syndrome development. This means difficult and log treatment for the affected patients. The aim of the thesis was to find out whether patients are informed on the possibility of surgical solution of compartment syndrome, what information they have on subsequent care of fasciotomy, and to what extent patients fear of possible leg amputation in the instance of compartment syndrome diagnosis. The last aim was to find out to what extent patients fear of consequent functionality limitation of the leg. Interviews were conducted with four patients hospitalized at the traumatology ward of České Budějovice Hospital and with three nurses working at the same ward. The method of non-standardized interview was used in the research. The research has shown that patients are provided with information on the method of surgical solution of compartment syndrome, however sometimes with delay, namely in a situation when a patient learnt the information after the surgery. The patients focused on their injured limbs, the nurses perceive the care of fasciotomy as a complex and inform a patient on all nursing care procedures applicable to the particular patient. The research has also confirmed the fears the patients have of possible amputation of their limbs as well as of subsequent limited functionality of the limb. This influences patient?s mentality, which is very important for the due course of treatment. This thesis outlines the importance of timely provision of information on possible complications and subsequent solution of these complications to the patients. Its lack might increase patient?s overall anxiety of his/her health condition, in our case about an injured limb. The research results will be probably published in journals and lectures may be given at educational events on this topic. A brochure Compartment Syndrome and its Treatment will be issued for patients.

Effect of climatic and environmental variables on changes in numbers and migratory behaviour of wintering and migrating waterbirds.
Adam, Matyáš ; Musil, Petr (advisor) ; Bejček, Vladimír (referee)
Waterbirds with their specific habitat and food requirements varying during their annual cycle (Riffell et al. 2003; Taft and Haig 2006) are able to indicate the wetland diversity and quality due to their rapid responses on changes in environment (Delany 1999; Fernández et al. 2005; Amat and Green 2010). Remarkable land cover changes and climate warming led to significant shifts in distribution and abundance of many waterbird species across Europe in recent decades (Delany et al. 2006; Fox et al. 2010; Lehikoinen et al. 2013; Pavón-Jordán et al. 2015). To understand the dynamic of migratory birds in space and time and to assess effects of global conditions as well as local conditions of individual sites during their annual cycle there is need of international monitoring and research. Since the start of International Waterbird Census in 1967 both increasing and decreasing trends have been recorded in nearly fifty percent of waterbird species in Western Palearctic (Delany et al. 2006, Wetlands International 2016) and they consequently have affected trends in particular countries, including the Czech Republic. Wetland sites in the Czech Republic are generally situated on the edge of wintering range of most waterbird species (Gilissen et al. 2002), however the prevailing increase in abundance of waterbird species has been recorded here in recent decades (Musil et al. 2011). Though, the considerable growth of winter temperatures has not been noticed in the Czech Republic (Klein Tank et al. 2002; Musilová et al. 2009; Dušek et al. 2013), and the accessibility of the wetland sites, due to their freezing, varies year to year. Hence, we can assume that waterbirds have likely began using the alternative habitats with available food resources, i.e. cold-weather refuges, probably regardless of their conservation status (Musilová et al. 2015). Special protection areas were implemented to Czech legislation in 2004 to protect migratory birds (Birds Directive 2009/147/EC). So far there has not been tested the effectivity and impact of legislative protection on wintering waterbird species. Moreover, some previous studies indicated that SPA network do not match the species distribution pattern (López-López et al. 2007; Briggs et al. 2012; Albuquerque et al. 2013), so this issue urgently calls for scientific research. The second part of the thesis focused on Greylag Geese, whose abundance has rapidly grown across the Europe in recent decades (Madsen et al. 1999; Fox et al. 2010), and that have become ideal model species to observe their responses to habitats and climate changes as well as their reactions to human disturbance (Fox and Madsen 1997; Ramo et al. 2015). This requires appropriate knowledge of geese distribution, abundance and their behaviour. Since 1930s, when the geese started to be ringed in the Czech Republic, the ringing intensity have markedly varied and have been reflected in numbers of recoveries. In last ten years the intensity have increased (Podhrazský 2010). However, complex of the historical data until 2002 (Cepák et al. 2008) and recent data have not been analysed so far. In the light of recent shifts in wintering ranges and migration phenology of many goose populations these analyses require increased attention. Furthermore, the satellite monitoring of geese is coming to detect more detailed information about behaviour of individuals.

Everyday spatial mobility of population in ORP Žďár nad Sázavou: Analysis of selected processes and geographic conditionalities
MAREK, Jan
The aim of the bachelor thesis was to observe everyday spatial mobility of the population of municipality with extended powers Žďár nad Sázavou. Required data were obtained through a questionnaire for each household of chosen micro region. There were gathered information concerning characteristics of the selected households and their individual members along with record of ways involved for reference days (Monday, Wednesday, Saturday). Based on the results of the survey, an analysis of selected processes and their geographic conditionality was made. At the same time, the results were compared with domestic and foreign literature dealing with this issue. The research itself thus concerned the differences in the mobility of the groups divided according to age, economic activity and etc. These groups are characterized by different traffic behaviour in space. The results show gender differences, women are taking higher number of ways, but, on average, shorter distances than men. Most frequently people travel for work and school, these routes are particularly significant on weekdays, at the weekends, leisure activities and activities associated with the quest for services dominate. In terms of economic activity, the issue of differences in mobile behaviour of college students associated with not-every-day way to school, is highlighted. The thesis is also engaged in the intensity of operation spatiotemporal mobility during the day, with an emphasis on the differences between working days and weekends. Analytical part is supplemented with graphical reports and charts.

Construction of railways on the territory of the Czech and their effect on time-space compression
DOLÁK, Štěpán
The following bachelor thesis discusses construction of railways in Czech republic and its effect on time-space compression and expression in time-space maps. Theoretical section describes evolution of transportation from pre-industrial till post-Fordist era. Reasons of time-space compression, convergence, divergence and distantiation are also described. Theoretical part discusses transport accessibility and construction of railways in wide range from local connections to phase of railway selection. Methodological section first describes collection of data about railway commute from different districts of Czech Republic in years 1900, 1918, 1937, 1950, 1975, 1991, 2001 and 2015. In the next part of the methodological section a formula of weighted time accessibility necessary for creation of time-space maps is introduced. Core of the analytical section lays primarily in maps based on collected data and created in programme ArcMap. These maps show evolution of time accessibility, speed and combination of time and speed expressed in weighted time accessibility. In the end of analytical section, shrinking space based on rail transportation in sphere of time-space maps is described. Analytical section also discusses and compares results where previously mentioned maps are the main source of commentaries. Last section summarizes all achieved findings and reacts to stated hypotheses.

Coppens, Filip ; Bareš, Ladislav (advisor) ; Vachala, Břetislav (referee) ; Györy, Hedvig (referee)
The study at hand focuses on an architectural complex or ensemble that regularly occurs in temples of the Thirtieth Dynasty and the Ptolemaic and Roman period. This ensemble generally combines an open court with an elevated and covered chapel, and is referred to as 'court' and wabet, respectively. The present study aims to bring together the common characteristics and essential components of all ensembles of wabet and court in order to get a better understanding of the ensemble's role in the temple and its development over time. Following a brief introduction to the thirteen temples that appear to contain this ensemble in their core and to the complexes themselves (chapter 1), the following chapters focus on the ensemble's location, orientation, layout, and chronology (chapter 2), the designations in use to refer to this complex (chapter 3), a description and analysis of the texts and reliefs applied to its walls (chapter 4), and a study of the origin and development of this decorative scheme (chapter 5) in order to gain a better insight into the activities performed in the complex and its role within the temple. With the main components of a typical complex of wabet and court in mind, the question is raised whether and to what degree various older spaces in temples from the New Kingdom and the Late Period...

King lists of the ancient Syropalestine
Čech, Pavel ; Zemánek, Petr (advisor) ; Oliverius, Jaroslav (referee) ; Prosecký, Jiří (referee)
King lists of ancient Mesopotamia are a well-defined and described part of the "scientific" literature of the era, known as the Listenwissenschanft. This work aims to put on the same level the king lists of the neighbouring area of Syro-Palestine - the lists discovered in Ebla, Mari, and Ugarit and published over the last twenty-five years. Its value as a historiographic source is questioned and the lists are understood primarily as an expression of the royal ideology. The study is based on the analyses of individual anthroponyms, examining the lists especially on the basis of intuitively selected criteria and studying their function and relation to the narrative fabric. The main difference is between the lists from Mari, which constitute a part of the Babylonian administrative tradition, and the lists from the west of the region. These are a synthesis of the legendary past, the cult of the dead and the political situation of the time, which is most apparent in the parts dedicated to the oldest rulers. The lists are therefore related to each other in space rather than in time.

The comparison of plastic scintillation detector with detector NaI(Tl), their utility and dosimetric properties. 1. The plastic scintillator detector 2. NaI(Tl) detector
VÁVRA, Jiří
This bachelor thesis deals with ionizing radiation, especially with its detection by another name measurement, in two scintillation detectors of ionizing radiation, a plastic scintillation detector and the detector of thallium-activated sodium iodide by another name NaI (Tl). The first description of an ionizing radiation in general terms is in the first chapter, eg. what is ionizing radiation and radioactivity, types of radioactive decay are listed and explained, further there are explained the interaction of ionizing radiation. Subsequently there are shown the passage of ionizing radiation by the material and in shortly way sources of ionizing radiation. Then there are quantities and units characterizing the radiation field in the space and the radiation exposure to the substance. As I do not deal with the effects of ionizing radiation on the organism in my bachelor thesis, there are not listed quantities and units associated with it. After information about ionizing radiation there is general information about scintillation detectors, which ideal properties should have scintillation material, the principle of scintillation detectors. In particular, there are information about mentioned detectors and their properties. The aim of the thesis is to compare the plastic scintillation detector with the detector NaI (Tl), which are used very often nowadays. Then to compare functional characteristics of these detectors, which are used in dosimetry, in industry, healthcare, and others. Then to compare efficiency, resolution, energy dependence, etc. with using the measurement of point emitters. There were used to measure the detectors of the same size for effective comparison, then radionuclide sources emitting the ionizing radiation with different energies in the entire measurement range. All measurements were made over a sufficiently long period and in the lead shielding to avoid interference from other (natural) radiation. The resulting spectras are indicated by peaks of the radionuclides to be a distinct difference in the resolution at used detectors, then there is graphically illustrated the light yield of detectors. I performed the energy calibration of both detectors, the efficiency calibration of the detector only at NaI (Tl) detector. It was not possible to implement this calibration at a plastic detector mainly due to the bad resolution of the detector and the resulting lack of calibration points. This problem has resulted that the energy calibration curve is not linear at a plastic detector; therefore, it is not entirely optimal. Both formed curves are essentially ideal at the detector NaI (Tl). It is shown from the measured spectras and their evaluation that the detector NaI (Tl) has a significantly better resolution and better light yield. So why and for what to use a plastic scintillator detector? The fact is discussed at the end of this thesis. Although plastic detectors have low spectrometric properties, they are used very often. Mainly because they are several times cheaper and they can be produced in large sizes and different shapes for a reasonable price. They are used for quick selection, thus determining whether the measured object emits ionizing radiation or not. NaI (Tl) detectors are used to identify radionuclides because of their relatively high resolution.
