This bachelor thesis entitled "The Awareness of Patients Diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes About Their Illness in a Selected Region "is divided into two main parts. In the theoretical part, it focuses on the characteristics of diabetes mellitus, especially on type 2 diabetes mellitus, including treatment and associated complications of this disease. In the practical part I focused on the level of awareness of type 2 diabetics from the Vysočina region, both in diabetics from the neighborhood and from the diabetes clinic of the hospital in Nové Město na Moravě. The level of awareness in the individual areas of treatment was then compared with answers to questions about their own compliance with the treatment rules. Answers to the question of knowledge was mostly correct but the situation about keeping the treatment rules was worse. The best results were in the field of sports, the worst of dieting. They were also very bad in aswering the questions related to acute complications. Only about 40 % of the answers were correct. Knowledge of chronic complications was better. 65 % of the answers were correct. The last partial goal was to find the main source of information, which is clearly the medical staff.

Food use of cannabis seeds and its importance in the rational human nutrition
OSINKOVÁ, Radka
Cannabis Sativa L. has been widely used since time immemorial in various areas, from medicine, textile industry and paper production to manufacturing of ropes or bowstrings. Thanks to its adaptability and wide usage, it has gradually spread all over the world. In the past, hempseed was a common part of the menu, mainly for the poorer population. This work addresses the potential for using hempseed in food industry, predominantly for prevention of various types of maladies, from inflammations or skin problems to diseases of affluence such as cardiovascular illnesses or cancer. Amongst the main beneficial ingredients in these one-seed pods we find, in dependence on the conditions in which they are grown and on the differences in varieties, approximately 25 % protein, 28 % carbohydrates, 6 % minerals a 35 % high-quality oil. There is a good content of vitamins E, C, B1, B2, B3 a B6 and minerals phosphorus, potassium, magnesium, sulphur, calcium, iron and zinc as well as proteins globulin edestin (65 %) and albumin (33 %), which contain nutritionally significant amounts of all essential amino acids indispensable for human health. Hempseed has plant oil of the highest quality containing 80 % unsaturated fatty acids and only about 10 % saturated fatty acids. The fatty acids n-6:n-3, gama-linoleic (50 70 %) and afla-linolenic (15:25 %) represent the ideal-for-humanorganism ratio 3:1 and increase its nutritional value. The seeds are also a good source of n-6 unsaturated fatty acid linolenic (1 - 6 %), which can be helpful for treatment of multiple sclerosis or the ADHD syndrome. The variety of hemp seed product has been steadily increasing with oils, flours, muesli bars, chocolate bars, pasta, or hemp-seed drinks serving as examples.

The use of teaching methods in nursing practice with a focus on prevention of lifestyle-related diseases.
DUBOVÁ, Marie
Diseases of affluence are those that accompany any given society at any given time. The best "treatment" for diseases of affluence is prevention, which in nursing practice can be achieved by using appropriate teaching methods. One of the diseases of affluence is tooth decay. Recent studies have shown a significant decrease in oral hygiene amongst children. The result is an increase in tooth decay which has a negative impact on the secondary dentition. Prevention should include increasing children?s awareness of their own health and learning effective teeth cleaning with the help of their parents. The role of nurses in primary prevention of oral health of children is indispensable and includes various educational activities. This thesis is focused on the use of appropriate teaching methods of tooth decay prevention in nursing practice. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of a prevention programme called ?A Healthy Tooth?. This programme was aimed at children in kindergarten and pupils in the first four years of primary schools. Its aim was to increase their skills and knowledge of preventing tooth decay. It was also aimed at parents of the children who were trained in this programme. To achieve the purposes of this thesis we used a methodological triangulation technique which enabled us to examine the impact of the programme by applying several different methods. The following methods were used: a questionnaire for parents and children, interviews with children and direct observation of children while they were cleaning their teeth. The questionnaire for parents and children consisted of six closed questions about the issue of tooth decay prevention. The questionnaires were anonymous and were compiled for the purposea of this thesis. The questionnaires were distributed to the children with a written consent from their parents. The research sample for the quantitative survey of parents included parents of children from kindergartens and primary schools in Jindřichův Hradec. 130 questionnaires were distributed, 128 (98 %) of completed questionnaires were returned and none of them were discarded. The research sample for the quantitative investigation of children included children from kindergartens and the first four years of primary schools in Jindřichův Hradec. With the consent of the parents, 24 children from kindergartens and 108 children from primary schools were interviewed. 132 (100%) questionnaires were classified for further evaluation. The data were evaluated using Microsoft Excel charts. To verify the hypotheses, we used a test of independence ? chi-square ? using a PivotTable. For the semi-structured interviews with children, we created a schedule of questions. The central topic of the interview was tooth decay and its prevention. Interviews with children were conducted with the written consent of their parents and were anonymised. Direct observation of children during toothbrushing was conducted to explore the method and sequence of cleaning their teeth. It was noted in the answer sheet and photographs were taken with the consent of the parents of the respondents. The research sample for the qualitative survey consisted of ten children ? five children from kindergartens in Jindřichův Hradec and five children from primary schools in Jindřichův Hradec. The data were processed in the SmartArt diagrams and tables using Microsoft Office Word 2007. The results of the survey helped determine the depth of knowledge and skills in the tooth decay prevention of children. It showed some positive effects of the use of appropriate teaching methods in the effectiveness of the prevention programme in nursing practice. It also contributed to the improvement of dental health in the child population.
