Postural stability in adults with Down syndrome
Ležíková, Marie ; Daďová, Klára (advisor) ; Hráský, Pavel (referee)
Title: Postural Stability in Adults with Down Syndrome Objectives: The goal of the thesis was to compare postural stability in individuals with Down syndrome and the control group comprising of healthy individuals, and to compare postural stability in adult men with Down syndrome and adult women with Down syndrome. Methods: The empirical part of the thesis was based on data collected from a pressure sensing platform MobileMat 3140 by Tekscan. The study was made up of 52 probands (30 men and 22 women). The probands were separated into the experimental and the control group based on their Down syndrome diagnosis. The experimental group consisted of 11 men and 15 women, with the average age being 38,4 ± 8,7 years, the average height 156 ± 7,2 cm, and the average weight 75,1 ± 16,2 kg. Similarly, the control group consisted of 11 men and 15 women, with the average age being 38,8 ± 9,2 years, the average height 175 ± 10,1 cm, and the average weight 78,9 ± 14,5 kg. The participants were measured in four modifications of the bipedal stance: wide base of support with the eyes open; wide base of support with the eyes closed; narrow base of support with the eyes open; narrow base of support with the eyes closed. Each measuring session took 30 seconds. Results: Six parameters of postural stability were...

The influence of 3-month exercise program on postural stability in individuals after bariatric surgery
Mašková, Kateřina ; Daďová, Klára (advisor) ; Vilikus, Zdeněk (referee)
Title: The effect of movement program on static postural stability in individuals after bariatric surgery Aims: The aim of this diploma thesis was to find out whether a three-month regular exercise program including strenght and aerobic training has an impact on static postural stability in obese individuals who underwent bariatric surgery. Methodology: The special part was written on the basis of data obtained from posturographic measurement of obese patients who underwent bariatric surgery. The static postural stability was measured using pressure plate a MobileMat from Tekscan. Participants were measured before surgery and approximately 4 months after surgery. A total of 30 subjects aged 31-65 years with BMI values between 35-55 kg/m2 (obesity class II and III) who underwent initial and exit examination including stabilometry, were included in this diploma thesis. They were divided into 2 groups, first group participating in a three-month exercise program (n = 10; age 51 ± 7.3 years; BMI 41.7 ± 6.4 kg/m2 ) and a group undergoing bariatric surgery only (n = 20; age 48 ± 9, 4 years; BMI 43.6 ± 6.5 kg/m2 ). The exercise program included exercise three times a week: once a week one-hour strength training and one-hour aerobic group training, and at least once a week home intervention. Results: In...
