Rosenmüllerová, Lenka ; Šifta, Petr (advisor) ; Nováková, Pavlína (referee)
Title The objectification of using of kinesio taping to influence a muscle tone in epicondylitis. Objectives The aim of this master thesis is to find an effect of inhibitive kinesiotape application to muscle tone of hypertonic m. extensor digitorum communis and to pain of lateral epicondyl in lateral epicondylitis. Method The master thesis is divided to theoretical part and empirical research, which is based on the first part. The evaluation of m. extensor digitorum communis tension after kinesiotape application is provided by myotonometry method. The measurement is performed in 5 tested persons before and after two-day kinesio tape application. The questionaire Numeric pain rating scale helps to find a change of pain before and after kinesio tape application and then the dependence of pain to muscle tone change. Results The myotonometer measurement found a decrease of m. extensor digitorum communis tension for 4 from 5 tested persons after two-day application. The pain of lateral epicondyl was reduced for all probands. Keywords lateral epicondylitis, tennis elbow, muscle tone, kinesio taping, myotonometer
The effect of menstrual cycle phases on muscle tone
Paurová, Aneta ; Šifta, Petr (advisor) ; Nováková, Pavlína (referee)
Title: The effect of menstrual cycle phases on muscle tone Goals and methods: The aim of this thesis is to prove the effect of menstrual cycle phases and participating hormons on the viscoelastic properties of the sceletal calf muscle via the non-invasive myotonometer device. The experimental part of this thesis is a pilot study in which participated seven female probands aged inbetween 24 to 28. Each proband participated in four weekly tests. Only probands who had not used hormonal contraception for at least six months were selected. Results: The results of the tests are represented in graphs picturing parts of curves representing the force caused by the tip of the myotonometer. The muscle soleus tension is changing throughout the menstrual cycle but its impossible to eliminate other endogenous and exogenous factors. The measured relative values of muscle tension are different for each proband. The menstrual phase has the highest average value of muscle tension. It is not possible to make a generally valid conclusion. Key words: Menstrual cycle, menstrual phase, muscle tone, calf muscle, biomechanical properties, myotonometry, contraception
Compensation programme for players handball team
Wisura, Marek ; Prajerová, Květa (advisor) ; Nováková, Pavlína (referee)
Title: Compensation programme for players national handball team In my thesis I am researching the muscle imbalance of athletes focused especially on playing national handball. My aim is to determine what the muscle imbalances are in the junior team and then creation of a compensating program which should help to remove or decrease the muscle imbalance. Once I have the compensating program created I will apply it to practice. The compensating program was based on analysis of the most active muscles in the body of National handball player. This thesis should be used as a part of a complex training for National handball players and should have a positive impact on the asymmetric load and also prevent development of the muscle imbalance. My thesis is based on a research which was done in the gym of ZŠ and MŠ in Nýřany. Keywords: national handball, testing, compensating program, muscle imbalance, stretching exercise, strengthening exercises

Drawing by parent's wiev

Bakalářská práce je zaměřena na kresbu předškolních dětí očima rodičů. Cílem práce je zjistit, zda se rodiče zajímají o kresbu svého dítěte, zda mají doma nějaké pomůcky k výtvarným činnostem, zda věnují dostatečnou pozornost detailům v kresbě dítěte a zda si s dítětem o nakresleném obrázku povídají. V teoretické části jsem se zaměřila na předškolní období, kresbu a její vývojová stádia. Krátce jsem se zmínila o rámcovém vzdělávacím programu pro předškolní vzdělávání, který je závazný pro všechna předškolní zařízení. V praktické části jsem dělala výzkumné šetření formou dotazníku pro rodiče. Výzkum proběhl na dvou mateřských školách, z nichž jedna byla na vesnici a druhá byla ve městě. Klíčová slova: kresba, vývoj výtvarného projevu, předškolní věk, rodiče
Stimulant drugs and their physiological effects
Nováková, Pavlína ; Novotný, Jiří (advisor) ; Hejnová, Lucie (referee)
The category of stimulant drugs is a heterogenous group of substances which benefit-to-harm ratio varies widely. This work attempts to use a systemic approach in order to characterize the underlying basis of the physiological effects of their selected representatives in brain. A brief pharmacological description of caffeine, nicotine, cocaine, amphetamine and methamphetamine is followed by an identification of main molecular targets of these drugs in the context of respective neurotransmitter systems. Major attention is given to both acute and chronic molecular mechnisms of action of the selected stimulant drugs up to the level of selected relevant neural circuits. In the next section stimulant drugs are presented as Trojan horses that attack the motivational system of the brain. Initially, a theoretical analysis of reward together with a neuroanatomical dissection of reward-related circuitry serves as a basis for the formulation of contemporary theories of drug addiction. Finally, an effort is made to synthesize common molecular events with specific aspects of reward in order to draw a picture of the neurobiological view of addiction.

Heidenreichová, Ivana ; Nováková, Pavlína (advisor) ; Levitová, Andrea (referee)
6 Abstract Title: Comparison of Movement Activity and Sport between Patients after Resurfacing and Total Hip Replacement Surgery Objectives: To summarize the available information about after-surgery regime and self- sufficiency after total hip replacement. To accent the differences between resurfacing and total hip replacement. To obtain the information about sport behavior and movement activity of patients after resurfacing and total hip surgery using questionnaire survey. To find out if they are able to return back to sport sctivity and how much do the total hip replacement limits them, to find out how the pain influences their movement activity. To compare the movement activity of patients after resurfacing with patients after total hip surgery. Methods: Thesis is worked out using quality assessment of information obtained by empiric way - using questionnaire survey. Results are processed using MS Excel into charts and graphs. Results: The objective of clear justification of advantages of hip resurfacing as a surgery method providing early return to movement activity has not been met. However the results cannot be simply generalized because of limited amount of respondents. Keywords: hip, total joint replacement, movement activity, sport

Master's thesis topic: Objectification of selected rehabilitation techniques used to influence the muscle tone Author: Bc. Zuzana Pavelková Branch of study: TVS_B Disertation Tutor: PhDr. Petr Šifta, Ph.D. Year of Defense: 2012 Abstract: The aim of this study was to discover, whether four selected rehabillitation techniques (dry-needling application, cryotherapy, stretching and kinesiotaping) influence the muscle tone of musculus gastrocnemius and musculus soleus. It was assumed, that above mentioned methods decrease the muscle tone of selected muscles, that was increased by previous running performance or owing to acute or chronic problems with Achilles tendon. The muscle tone was measured by myotonometer in Kinesiology laboratory, Faculty of Physical Education and Sport at Charles University in Prague; muscle tone of twelve students of thisfaculty was measured. Data were displayed by using an analog- digital convertor and consequently evaluated. The results of this study indicate, that four selected rehabillitation methods influence the muscle tone of musculus gastrocnemius and musculus soleus. The muscle tone was best influenced by application of dry-needling and by kinesiotaping; results of muscle tone measurement after dry-needling application and kinesiotaping confirmed above stated...
