Prenatal and Perinatal Risk Factors of Childhood Obesity
Šmídová, Radka ; Pejšová, Hana (advisor) ; Chrpová, Diana (referee)
Diploma thesis is divided into a theoretical and practical part. I dedicated the theoretical part not only to prenatal and perinatal obesity risk factors, but also to diagnosis, management, health complications and prevention. In the practical part, I described the outcomes of the questionnaire survey dedicated to the mothers of children aged 1-7 years. The aim of this thesis was to find out the occurrence of selected risk factors for childhood obesity. I found out that in my study group, there were some risk factors represented in relatively small quantity (for example smoking during pregnancy, smoking during breastfeeding, gestational diabetes mellitus). Other risk factors, such as mother's or father's obesity were frequent. Some risk factors for childhood obesity are obvious, while others have not yet been proved to be directly related to obesity. However, we can certainly suggest, that the healthy parents' weight, alcohol and nicotine abstinence and exclusive breastfeeding at least until the end of fourth month of life are the factors beneficial not only for the health of the child. Key words: childhood obesity; diet during pregnancy; nutritional programming; obesity prevention; obesity risk factors
The obesity as an actual problem of today´s society
FRYŠOVÁ, Iveta
This Bachelor Study is on the topic of The obesity as an actual problem of today´s society. Its aim is to summarize the basic topics and questions about the obesity and to show what is the ideal of the body beauty and the body weigh from the view of people who suffer from the obesity, overweight people and also of people with the normal weight. For the research three hypothesis have been set: 1. People suffering from the obesity don´t differ in the point of view of mental representation of the ideal body figure from the common population. 2. The lifestyle of people suffering from the obesity has nothing to do with their conception of the ideal body figure. 3. People suffering from the obesity don´t differ in the point of view of the satisfaction with their body from overweight people. There have been chosen a quantitative {--} qualitative research. The questionnaire was wholly anonymous. The research took place in January and February 2007. First hypothesis was refuted. Second and third hypothesis were confirmed. In my opinion the aim of the Study was accomplished. There are many of TV programmes, books, magazines or web sites that attent to the obesity. The reason is that the number of people who suffer from this disease grows up in whole Europe. The obesity is defined as an excessive physical mass with increased portion of the adipose tissue. It is not only the aesthetic problem. The obesity can cause many health problems, e.g. diabetes mellitus, hypertension, cancer, gynaecologist problems, cardiac or joint diseases. This condition can also have an impact on the human mental sphere and depressions or anxiety can occur. Today ´s ideal of the body beauty is a very thin figure. Women and girls are forced to be on a diet. There are more and more people who just only think that they are overweight or obese. The diet industry has gigantic power to support the idealization of the slimness.
