Jelínková, Kateřina ; Žáková, Lenka (advisor) ; Vomáčková, Helena (referee)
Title: Comparison of the shoulder joint rotation in relation to anthropometric measures in baseball and softball pitchers Objectives: The main objective of this study was to compare the ranges of shoulder joint rotations in male baseball and softball pitchers due to differences in pitching biomechanics. Furthermore, to determine the difference in range of motion to rotations on the dominant and non-dominant upper extremity and to determine the prevalence of glenohumeral internal rotation deficits of the shoulder. The subject was also investigated to find possible relationships between measured anthropometric (HK length, arm span, biacromial width) values and goniometric values of range of motion into rotations including the prevalence of glenohumeral deficit. Methods: The research sample included 20 actives Czech Extraliga baseball and softball players, who were divided by sport for the purpose of the study. The baseball group included 10 probands (10 male, aged 25.1 ± 3.5 years, height 185.5 ± 7.8 cm, weight 93.7 ± 9.7 kg, years baseball of participation 14.9 ± 3.8 years). The softball group also included 10 probands (10 male, aged 23.1 ± 2.5 years, height 183.2 ± 8.1 cm, weight 88 ± 11.9 kg, years softball of participation 12.2 ± 1.8 years). None of the players reported an upper extremity injury...

Kovařík, Martin ; Petelen, Ivan (referee) ; Hronský, Michal (referee) ; Doc.Ing.Veronika Kotradyová,PhD. (referee) ; Šindlar, Jiljí (advisor)
This thesis focuses on research in the field of anthropometric measurements of the adult population, its history, basic concepts and research itself, conducted under the author’s leadership of the NIS project at the Mendel University in Brno. The research results and its application in the field of interiors and furniture should be used to revise the architectural patterns and standards dealing with the relations on the axis between man – interior – furniture. It describes the relations of individual parameters, a person's height and weight, their development depending on age and sex, compares the height curve growth in Czech population and in Europe. The results of the work should serve as a basis for revising the existing typological principles and standards with regard to new results; in conclusion the author proposes conceptual changes of the fixed schemes in relations of man and interior.

Influence of autism on facial morphology
Cenková, Klára ; Velemínská, Jana (advisor) ; Harnádková, Katarína (referee)
Autism (ASD) is a severe pervasive neurodevelopmental disorder with an as yet unclear etiology but increasing incidence. Early diagnosis and early initiation of therapy are crucial to the success of its treatment and to improving the quality of life of individuals with PAS. The identification of biomarkers in the form of specific facial features of individuals with autism can contribute significantly to facilitating diagnosis. These facial dysmorphologies have their basis in the prenatal period as a consequence of the common and interacting embryogenesis of the face and brain and reflect the neurodevelopmental basis of autism. Using special anthropometric methods, specific facial phenotypes can be determined, which can also be used to classify individuals with PAS into groups according to the severity of the disorder. Key words: Autism, facial dysmorphology, ASD, biomarkers, anthropometry

Větrovská, Klára
This bachelor thesis deals with the analysis of the ergonomics of the church pew and its own design. In the first part, we familiarize ourselves with the spiritual and material significance of the church pew and its needs and differences from other sitting furniture. This section also explains the concepts of ergonomics and anthropometry. It introduces their history and significance to man. The second part contains specific measurements of church pews and an analysis of measured values. The data is shown in the charts. In the third part, the creation of a custom design of a church pew made of solid wood, including a reshuffle, is recorded. There are three designs in both 2D and 3D execution and more detailed processing of the final design, which includes a description of the production.

Comparison of somatic parameters of female canoe sprint and canoe slalom competitors
Tulachová, Johana ; Busta, Jan (advisor) ; Bílý, Milan (referee)
Title of project: Comparison of somatic parameters of female canoe sprint and canoe slalom competitors Objectives of the work: The aim of this work is to compare the anthropometric parameters (body structure and body composition) of sprint canoe and canoe slalom female competitors. Methods of data processing: Anthropometric measurement was carried out by Riegerová, Přidalová, Ulbrichová (2006) and all parameters were all in accordance with the ISAK methodology used in the study by Ridge et al. (2007). A Harpenden-type caliper was used to measure skinfolds. Somatotypes were determined according to the methodology of Carter & Heath (1990). A bioimpedance scale (Tanita MC-980) was used for body composition analysis. The data were subsequently analyzed using descriptive (mean, standard deviation, median, minimum and maximum value, %) and exploratory statistics to assess statistical (T- test, p<0.05) and substantive (Cohen's d, d>0.8 ) of the significance of the difference between female in canoe sprint and canoe slalom. Results: In the compared groups, significant statistical differences were recorded in the circumferences of the biceps (p=0.00, d=1.43), forearms (p=0.04) and thighs (p=0.00, d=1.87). Sprint female canoeists and kayakers, on average, have a higher body weight by almost 4 kg, also a...

Facial Aging Analysis
Hrabošová, Alžbeta ; Malinka, Kamil (referee) ; Goldmann, Tomáš (advisor)
Facial aging and age-related changes in facial dimensions are extremely relevant aspects in various fields dealing with facial reconstruction, forensic identification or aging prediction. The main objectives of this work were to analyze facial aging in terms of anthropometric characteristics, to evaluate the impact of aging on the face as a whole as well as on individual anthropometric ratios and to predict future facial growth. The analysis was based on the evaluation of the evolution of 10 facial ratios in 285 subjects aged 0,75 - 17,5 years. Aging in both sexes showed common features, such as pronounced changes associated with increases in facial width, nose, jaw, mouth, and distance between the outer and inner corners of the eyes at about 6 years of age. At the later age of up to 13 years, the face is still significantly elongated, while the changes in width are already minimal. These are mainly features such as the morphological height of the face, the height of the lower part of the face and the height of the nose. At the same time, we are able to predict the further development of anthropometric features from the input photograph.

Bardová, Petra ; Hronek, Miloslav (advisor) ; Kovařík, Miroslav (referee)
The aim of this work was to measure and evaluate the amount of body fluids of pregnant women during pregnancy and its link with other monitored parameters. The Bioimpedance spectroscopy method used the Body Composition Monitor from Fresenius Medical Care in order to collect data on body fluid status in ten pregnant women enrolled in a longitudinal clinical study conducted in collaboration with the Faculty of Pharmacy of Charles University and the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the University Hospital in Hradec Králové. The device measured bioimpedance on 50 frequencies in the range from 5 KHz to 1000 KHz and all women underwent a total of three examinations in specified periods (week 17-27, 28-35 and 36-38 week of pregnancy). During each measurement, main focus was compliance with standard conditions and correct execution. During the study period, statistically significant changes in body fluid volumes were observed in women. The median total body water (TBW) volume increased by 3.8 l, the median extracellular water (ECW) volume by 1.4 l and the median intracellular water (ICW) volume increased by 2.3 l. The increase in body fluids was accompanied by a decrease in resistance values. Decrease in values during pregnancy was also shown in the overhydration parameter. Spearman's correlation...
