The measurement of cardiovascular parameters
Žáková, Monika ; Kratochvíla, Jiří (referee) ; Nováková, Zuzana (advisor)
This paper summarizes the problems of physiology of the cardiovascular system, with a focus on cardiovascular measurements during physical activity. It describes the diagnostic tools Cardiovit AT-104 (Schiller, Switzerland) and PowerCube (Ganshorn, Germany), used to spiro-ergometry measurements. It provides options to export data and work with them. It proposed protocol for the measurement of a small group of volunteers, by which we measure basic diagnostic parameters before, during and after physical activity. The MATLAB application is created, allowing clear analysis of measurement records. The final part contains a statistical assessment affected by physical activity on the measured parameters and a comparison of results with the available literature.

Cranial morphology and variability of the craniovascular system.
Eisová, Stanislava ; Velemínský, Petr (advisor) ; Stingl, Josef (referee) ; Heuzé, Yann (referee)
Introduction: The craniovascular system is part of the vascular network of the head, and includes the middle meningeal vessels (arteria meningea media and vena meningea media; MMV), dural venous sinuses (sinus durae matris; DVS), emissary veins (venae emissariae; EV) and diploic veins (venae diploicae; DV). These vasculatures leave marks in the skull in form of imprints on the inner surface of cranial vault bones (MMV, DVS), channels within the bone diploe of cranial vault bones (DV), and cranial foramina (EV). Craniovascular traits can be studied in osteological samples, and thus provide an opportunity to investigate the physiological processes associated with blood circulation in past populations. Craniovascular features can also supply information about evolutionary adaptations, inter- and intra-population differences, and individual life history. Moreover, a knowledge of the anatomical variants can be useful in medicine and surgical practice. Objectives: The aim of this thesis was to specify a methodological approach for the measurement and evaluation of craniovascular traits, and then to analyse the morphological variability of the craniovascular system in adult individuals with normal cranial anatomy from several different populations with regards to the cranial size, sex, and age. Then,...

Acute effect of antagonist supersets strength training on cardiovascular parameters in patients with normotension
Drobilová, Julie ; Juřík, Roman (advisor) ; Šťastný, Petr (referee)
Title: Changes in selected cardiovascular parameters induced by different variants of antagonistic strength training in normotensive subjects Goals: The aim of this study is to investigate the changes in selected cardiovascular parameters induced by different variants of antagonistic strength training and their subsequent comparison between a group of working and physically active individuals from FTVS students. Another aim was to determine which of the antagonistic training variants causes a greater response of cardiovascular parameters. Methods: The research work is based on theoretical-empirical foundations, based on a quantitative research method. Measurements using the Arteriograph device were performed in a non-invasive way in two heterogeneous groups. Results: I compared the changes in cardiovascular parameter values between the non-sporting and sporting groups. Since this type of groups were compared, the result was that the values measured in the non-sporting group were increased compared to the sporting group. As a result of the research work, it was found that a greater increase in cardiovascular parameters occurs after antagonistic upper body training.
