vi Abstract Title: Ultrasonographic comparison of the size of the cross-sectional area of the long head biceps brachii tendon in overhead athletes and non-competitive women Aims: This study aimed to compare the cross-sectional area (CSA) size of the long head biceps tendon (LHBT) and the prevalence of positive functional tests for LHBT lesions in volleyball and handball players compared to a control group of young, non-sporting women. This study aims is to determine whether overhead female athletes, specifically female handball and volleyball players, experience a reduction in the size of the cross- sectional area of this tendon due to many years of regular sports activity. Furthermore, This study aims to determine the prevalence of positive functional tests for LHBT in both groups and subsequently to confirm or refute the correlation between a possible reduction in the size of the CSA of the biceps long head tendon in female overhead athletes and the positivity of functional tests. Methods: This research is an observational experiment. Theoretical knowledge was drawn from available Czech and foreign literature sources written in Czech, English and German. 39 probands selected based on selection and exclusion criteria participated in the experimental part of the research.According to the set research...

Acceleration and motion of upper limbs
Novotný, Adam ; Kolář, Radim (referee) ; Kolářová, Jana (advisor)
Purpose of this work is mainly the description of electrical plots in skeletal muscles and secondarily experimental verification and description of methods connected with measuring and evaulating biosignals. The theoretical presentation of muscle physiology facts is supplemented with an experiment using pair t-test, which describes procedures leading to evaluating particular hypotheses (the measured muscle is biceps brachii). In this work, the biosignal is an EMG signal, thus the electrical activity of muscle. Therefore, the main objective of this work is not only about using EMG as an examination method, but also about showing a complex view at the recording, processing and evaluating of EMG signal. These facts are supplemented with programm application which is showing the way working with EMG signals and also the possibilities of algorithm development in such signals.
