Effect of elevated levels of corticoid hormones on child growth and bone tissue
Brusová, Adéla ; Sedlak, Petr (advisor) ; Zemková, Daniela (referee)
The Bachelor's thesis deals with the elevated level of glucocorticoid hormones and their effect on bone tissue. In particular, reasons which cause hypercorticoisms in human body genetic diseases, tumors, autoimmune diseases, and so forth, are described in detail. Asthma and other diseases are treated by glucorticoid and increase hypercorticoism. This autoimmune disease are treated by glucocorticoid and increase the hypercorticoism. Therefore, this thesis focuses on research process consists of multiple scientific studies including the impact of glucocorticoid hormones on bone tissue, endocrine system hypothalamus-hypophyse-IGF-I and influence of endocrine system on child's growth. The main benefit of the Bachelor's thesis is the description of the outcome of inhalation glucocorticoid hormones on body height in childhood.
Effect of elevated levels of corticoid hormones on child growth and bone tissue
Brusová, Adéla ; Sedlak, Petr (advisor) ; Zemková, Daniela (referee)
This Bachelor's thesis examines the effect of elevated level of corticoid hormons on growing organism. The negative effect of glucocorticoid hormones and their derivates is evidenced especially on child growth and growth of bone density. Primary source of the elevated level of corticoids in organism are medicaments. The anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects of the glucocorticoids are used in medical treatment of various diseases (infections, chronical diseases - especially GIT, autoimmune diseases etc.). The rare source of the hypercorticoidism in childhood are hormonally active tumors (the tumor of the adrenal cortex). The main part of the Bachelor's thesis deals with impact of long-term inhalation of glucocorticoid hormones on body height and quality of bone tissue of the patients with astma bronchiale.
