Salerno verses published by Daniel Adam of Veleslavín
Černá, Alena M.
The article is devoted to a medical didactic poem on the preservation of health Regimen sanitatis Salernitanum, which is known as Salerno verses, published by Daniel Adam of Veleslavín in 1587. The original Latin verses were translated into national languages from the Middle Ages. We deal with the question of whether one of the Czech translations was prepared by Daniel Adam of Veleslavín and what is the relation of the translation from 1587 to the older translation from 1584. We lay special attention to the characteristics of the Czech language of Veleslavín's edition.

Způsoby hodnocení stresu u koní
ČERNÁ, Michaela
This bachelor's thesis deals with the currently highly addressed issues in horse bree-ding, which is stress. It can be caused by a number of causes and lead to a number of undesirable consequences. These can adversely affect the health, performance or behavior of the animals. Therefore, this is a very important topic for horse breeders. The aim of this bachelor thesis was to write available current information about horse stress and select appropriate methods for its evaluation. The following proce-dures were chosen: heart rate, cortisol levels, body temperature and eye temperatu-re. The observation included 3 individuals who were integrated into the new herd. The most effective way to evaluate the degree of tremor in the incorporation of horses into a new herd was to measure the temperature of the eye using a thermal camera. Within 3 days, the value of the eye temperature dropped from 35.5 °C to 31.6 °C. An invasive and accurate method for determining stress in horses was found-free determination of blood cortisol concentrations, which were recorded at 64.3 nmol / l, 29.7 nmol / l when collected at 17:00 and 149 nmol / l when collected at 10:00. The morning time proved to be more suitable for blood collection to assess the degree of stress. Heart rate was recorded as normal (36 bpm, 44 bpm) and did not reflect the stress response. Rectal temperature measurement has proven difficult to perform in horses in a new environment and under stress. Eye temperature measurement proved to be the most accurate method for asses-sing stress in horses and blood cortisol levels, which is more suitable for scientific purposes. However, the goal of every breeder should be to try to prevent stressful situations, especially by fulfilling the welafre in horse breeding.

Social Housing for People with Mental Disorder
ČERNÁ, Monika
The aim of the bachelor thesis was to describe social housing for people with mental disorders, especially in the city of Pilsen. In the practical part, the following research questions were answered: 1) What are the possibilities and specifics of social work with people with mental disorders? 2) What is the benefit of social housing from the point of view of clients with mental disorders? For the research, I chose a qualitative research strategy using the method of semi-structured interviews. The first part of the interviews took place with social workers of the City of Pilsen - Department of Affordable Housing and Social Inclusion, the second part of the interviews with tenants of social housing who have been diagnosed with a mental disorder. The research set was created by the method of intentional selection and subsequent data analysis was performed by the coding method. A total of fourteen semi-structured interviews were conducted, five with social workers and twelve with clients. The research part showed that all communication partners from the ranks of clients lived in precarious housing conditions before moving into a social apartment, all of them showed repeated moving, especially after substandard forms of housing. This situation often worsened their mental state, and most of them were regularly hospitalized in psychiatric hospitals. The most common reasons for the absence of long-term stable housing presented by communication partners were poor financial situation, mental health problems and poor social ties. After moving into a social apartment, all communication partners managed to keep housing with the support of a social worker free of rent, and almost all of them had a long-term health condition. They all live in a social apartment for more than one year. The bachelor's thesis can be beneficial for social workers who, in the exercise of their profession, meet people with mental disorders suffering from housing deprivation. It could also be an inspiration for municipalities considering the introduction of social housing.

Rotacism in Czech and its perceptual response
Šimková, Iva ; Černá, Martina (advisor) ; Skarnitzl, Radek (referee)
This bachelor thesis aims to contribute to the research of the relation between the speech of speakers with rhotacism and negative evaluation in the perception of their speech. A perception test was created based on the previous research concerned with the perception of disrupted speech and more detailed characteristics of rhotacism. The test was based on samples of utterances that were selected from the speech of five speakers with rhotacism. The test provided the necessary material for data analysis through indirect testing of the perceptive response of thirty-six respondents. The analysis deals with the comparison of the utterances which contained the problematic /r/ sound to the utterances which were missing the problematic /r/ sound as a result of the perceptive score. Based on the descriptive and frequentist statistics, it has been found that the utterances with rhotacism were evaluated more negatively than the utterances without the vibrant /r/. The thesis also attempts to expose the possible relations between the implemented type of rhotacism or the context in which the sound /r/ occurs, and the perceptive response of these phenomena.

Epigenetic regulation of gene expression in cancer progression and HIV-1 latency
Kovářová, Denisa ; Hejnar, Jiří (advisor) ; Černá, Marie (referee) ; Rösel, Daniel (referee)
Epigenetic mechanisms of transcriptional regulation and modulation of gene expression using RNA interference have become a powerfull tool for studying various cellular mechanisms, including tumor progression and viral latency. Advances in expression profiling have provided technology to detect candidate genes implicated in this complex process and bring other possibilities in the diagnosis and treatment of tumor diseases. In this work, I compare the gene expression profiles of v-src-transformed metastatic and nonmetastatic cells using microarray chip technology. Transcription factor homeodomain only protein X (HOPX) was identified as one of the differentially expressed genes. Activity of HOPX gene in several cancer types is usually controlled by promoter methylation. The role HOPX in metastatic formation was assessed by inoculation of cells with modulated expression of HOPX in a syngeneic chicken model system. After HOPX knockdown using shRNA, originally metastatic line showed decreased in vivo metastatic capacity. Further genomic analyses identified a cadre of genes affected by HOPX knockdown. These data demonstrate that HOPX is a metastasis-associated gene and that its knockdown decreases the metastatic activity of v-src-transformed cells through altered gene expression patterns. In the second...

Strong Epistasis in Genetics of Leishmaniasis - Identification of Genes and Mechanisms
Krayem, Imtissal ; Lipoldová, Marie (advisor) ; Černá, Marie (referee) ; Krulová, Magdaléna (referee)
Leishmaniasis, a disease caused by Leishmania parasites, ranks as the leading neglected tropical disease in terms of morbidity and mortality. Genotype of the infected organism is an important factor that influences susceptibility to and manifestations of this disease. To study human disease using mouse models, several strains are required, which could collectively exhibit different human pathophysiology. In the current thesis, we investigated the genetic influence on resting levels of immune cells in mice, because these resting levels could influence susceptibility to many of clinical disorders, including infectious diseases; and we performed a systematic review of the role of host genetics and cytokines in Leishmania infections. Moreover, we employed systems genetics to map genes causing susceptibility to leishmaniasis, and to identify additional mechanisms controlling response to Leishmania parasites. Also, we fine mapped the locus Leishmania major response 15 (Lmr15) in order to functionally characterize its role and to identify novel potential candidate genes regulating the response to L. major. Finally, we show a novel role of guanylate binding proteins 2b and 5 in the resistance to L. major. Strain B10.O20 carrying 3.6% of O20-derived genes on the C57BL/10 genetic background, on chromosomes...

Pilgrimage, countryside and pilgrim
Černá, Marie ; Daniel, Ladislav (advisor) ; Fremlová, Vendula (referee)
The subject of the diploma thesis is the relationship between the artist and the landscape. The thesis focuses mainly on the tradition of pilgrimage and outlines the aspects of the landscape that the artist uses as a pilgrim in his work. The pilgrimage phenomenon is shown here through the works of Czech as well as foreign authors, from the illustrations from the travels to the performances in the landscape. In the didactic part, the tasks focused on the activities in the landscape are outlined, which reflect the perception of the landscape of the secondary school pupils. In the practical part there is a project dealing with the reflection of my travels around the landscape. Keywords Landscape, pilgrim, performance, action art, romanticism

Pathway to inclusion: attitudes towards inclusive education of intellectually disabled children in the Czech Republic
Soo, Suzana ; Šiška, Jan (advisor) ; Černá, Marie (referee)
A small-scale research involving a total of 39 special education teachers and parents was conducted in the city of Sumperk and Rakovnik, in the Czech Republic. Since the implementation of the Equal Education Act in 2004, the numbers of children in segregated special schools remained high and the largest number of children attending these segregated special schools are intellectually disabled. It is believed that the attitudes of special education teachers and parents are important factors in contributing to the current situation in special schools. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
