Current eating habits of preschool children
RADOMSKÁ, Věra
The main aim of the thesis Current diet of preschool child is to find out how to realize healthy diet for 14 days. The next aim is to find out the knowledge of parents how to follow the rules. Theoretical part is focused on explanation of preschool age (physiological and psychosocial child growth). Next focus is detail analysis of health diet and acknowledge food preparation: The influence of family and kindergarten is emphasized a lot in child diet. Quantitative research method is used in processing of research part, which was realised by recording each food in 14 days at 20 preschool aged children in České Budějovice district. I collected these records from February till March 2014. Information was provided from children´s parents. Sum calculation of energy, proteins, fats and sugars income was processed by "Nutriservis Profesional" programme. 14 days records of food drinks and physical activity were used to evaluate nutrition parts. I calculated daily nutrition income from provided data of weight of each respondent. I processed provided data in "Nutriservis Profesional". I compared collected amounts of energy, proteins, fats and sugars with recommended daily income. Processed data are interpreted in form of charts and plain text. The conclusion is that all children have abundant income of energy, proteins, fats and sugars compared to recommended daily income. There is lack of energetic income and fibres income at some children. Regular physical activity is common sign of all recorded children. All children eat regularly (5 6 meals a day) and drink habit. Most of recorded children eat both at home and in kindergarten. I noticed little income of Cannes and inappropriate drinks among main courses. None of the children were under or over weight according to recorded data. The research shows that there is no deficiency in children´s health diet. Consumption of food and drinks was strictly followed.

Cooperation of a stoma nurse with multidisciplinary team
VOTRUBOVÁ, Veronika
A stoma is an opening of a hollow organ on the surface of the body. The care for a stoma aims at returning a patient to ordinary life and it is exactly in this process that a stoma nurse should help the patient. The stoma nurse guides the patient through the pre-operative preparation, the post-operative preparation and also through the outpatient preparation in which the patient visits the stoma nurse in a stoma clinic. Cooperation of the stoma nurse with other members of the multidisciplinary team is important because it makes it possible for the stoma nurse to meet all the needs of the patient. The theoretical part deals with the anatomy and physiology, definitions stoma stoma and also the history of its development in nursing. The next chapter deals with the indications, types of stoma and possible complications. The chapters on preoperative and postoperative care, nutritional advice and clubs for stoma patients. Other chapters are devoted to stoma nurses. The primary intention of the thesis is to meet one objective which is to find out how a stoma nurse cooperates within the framework of a multidisciplinary team in various departments of a healthcare facility. The following hypothesis was set for this objective: "The integration of a stoma nurse in a multidisciplinary team is different in every department." The research question was: "How is a stoma nurse integrated in a multidisciplinary team?" The research was carried out by means of a quantitatively qualitative investigation. A method of questioning using the technique of questionnaires was used for collecting data in the quantitative research of the bachelor's thesis. The questionnaires were addressed to nurses in the internal medicine and surgical wards. The collected data were evaluated by means of processed graphs. The qualitative research was carried out with stoma nurses in the surgical ward by means of interviews. The quantitative survey implies that the shift nurses in a surgical ward cooperate much better with the stoma nurse than nurses in an internal medicine ward. In the surgical ward the cooperation is better in terms of communication with shift nurses because they exchange information about patients with stomas, the occurrence of complications and the nursing procedure. On the other hand, in the internal medicine ward this communication in many cases does not work. In most cases the nurses at the internal medicine ward do not feel a need to communicate and discuss the care for a patient with the stoma nurse. The stated objective was achieved using the research question and the confirmation of the hypothesis. From a qualitative investigation implies that stoma nurses are integrated in the education of patients before and after operations. The pre-operative preparation includes also the drawing of a suitable place for a stoma on the body of a future stoma patient. In most cases they discuss a suitable procedure of caring for a stoma patient with shift nurses and inform each other about the occurrence of complications. If they are interested, the stoma nurse informs the nurses of new appliances and findings from seminars. She has got also her own specific documentation where she writes down details about patients. Two stoma nurses also point to the option of cooperating with a nutritional therapist as a part of the nutritional consultation of a patient with a stoma. When cooperating with a physical therapist the stoma nurse informs him of the patient's overall condition and the physical therapist provides total rehabilitation. The results of the findings established by this bachelor's thesis will be provided to the management of hospitals where this research took place.

Evaluation of the effectiveness of teaching vocational subjects depending on physical activity before schooling.
Janošíková, Martina ; Hanušová, Marie (advisor)
The period of transition to secondary school brings substantial changes in the requirements for study obligations, autonomy, communication, expression, or separated from their families in the form of staying at the dormitory. Students enrolled in sport centers, in addition to these changes, still struggling with the responsibilities associated with sport. Because they are students first through fourth grades of secondary schools and secondary vocational schools, an age when image self-I am, what I believe in, arises in interactions with the outside world and their own experience, plays a very important role to influence the environment, educators, teachers and trainers, with which students spend most of their time in practice. This study looks at students comprehensively in terms of personal development as a multifactorial biopsychosocial unit, in terms of cognitive and motivational processes, states and properties from the perspective of social psychology dealing with the interactions, relationships and communication, psychology of individuals within the social group and its importance for the development of the individual . It monitors conditions and educational outcomes in terms of educational psychology, dealing with forming properties, opinions, attitudes and value orientation from the perspective of educational psychology.

Individual human odor as a forensic trail in criminal proceeding made by contact or contactless transmission and its resistance to physical agents
Santariová, Milena ; Bartoš, Luděk (advisor) ; Chmelíková, Eva (referee)
The dissertation thesis consists of four papers that have been published in scientific journals. Study n. 1 The need to recover evidence from water is quite common in criminal investigation. The article deals with the possibility to collect human scent from such objects and with the ability of specially trained dogs to match such scent samples with scent samples collected from detained suspects. During an experiment, designed as a blind one, it has been proved, that human scent can survive on submerged objects and can be later used for scent identification. Study n. 2 To collect odors the Czech Republic Police use special fabric sorbents manufactured under the registered mark ARATEX. Before use the fabric sorbent is treated by water vapor sterilization. After the scent identification the sorbent is destroyed. The goal of the study was to verify if the vapor sterilization is effective enough to remove human scent that has already penetrated into the sorbent structure or in other words if the sorbent can be exposed to vapor sterilization and then used again. Specially trained dogs were used to match starting odors with target odors in the line-ups. The results showed that dogs are able to correctly match human odors even after they have being exposed to vapor sterilization. Study n. 3 The purpose of the study was to determine the temperature at which the human scent is degraded so that a dog would not be able to identify it. In contrast to expectations, eight dogs used in the experiment almost flawlessly identified human scents from five scent donors exposed to temperatures of 100°C, 200°C, 300°C, 400°C, 500°C, 600°C, 700°C, and 800°C. Only two of the dogs were able to identify 5 of 15 scent samples exposed to 900°C. No dog identified a scent exposed to 1000°C. Our study verified heat survivability of human scent far beyond existing expectations. Study n. 4 We tested the hypothesis that if odor fallout (the release of a human odor onto an untouched object) in human subjects exists, then holding a hand above an absorbent will produce a detectable scent which will be subsequently matched in a detection test by trained dogs. Scents were collected from seven males to sterile cotton absorbent squares. The left hand was used to get the control scent and the right hand served as the target scent. Each experimental subject was sitting and his left hand was laid down on a cotton square for 3 min. The right hand was held 5 cm above another cotton square for 3 min. The scent identification was done by two specially trained police German shepherds. Both dogs performed 14 line-ups and correctly matched the collected scents of all test subjects. The results suggest the existence of human odor fallout, whereby a human scent trace is left by humans even if they do not touch an object.

Feasibility Study of an Interactive Medical Diagnostic Wikipedia
Grim, Jiří
Considering different application possibilities of product distribution mixtures we have proposed three formal tools in the last years, which can be used to accumulate decision-making know-how from particular diagnostic cases. First, we have developed a structural mixture model to estimate multidimensional probability distributions from incomplete and possibly weighted data vectors. Second, we have shown that the estimated product mixture can be used as a knowledge base for the Probabilistic Expert System (PES) to infer conclusions from definite or even uncertain input information. Finally we have shown that, by using product mixtures, we can exactly optimize sequential decision-making by means of the Shannon formula of conditional informativity. We combine the above statistical tools in the framework of an interactive open-access medical diagnostic system with automatic accumulation of decision-making knowledge.

Physically-based Modeling and Simulation
Dvořák, Radim ; Racek, Stanislav (referee) ; Šujanský,, Milan (referee) ; Zbořil, František (advisor)
Disertační práce se zabývá modelováním znečištění ovzduší, jeho transportních a disperzních procesů ve spodní části atmosféry a zejména numerickými metodami, které slouží k řešení těchto modelů. Modelování znečištění ovzduší je velmi důležité pro předpověď kontaminace a pomáhá porozumět samotnému procesu a eliminaci následků. Hlavním tématem práce jsou metody pro řešení modelů popsaných parciálními diferenciálními rovnicemi, přesněji advekčně-difúzní rovnicí. Polovina práce je zaměřena na známou metodu přímek a je zde ukázáno, že tato metoda je vhodná k řešení určitých konkrétních problémů. Dále bylo navrženo a otestováno řešení paralelizace metody přímek, jež ukazuje, že metoda má velký potenciál pro akceleraci na současných grafických kartách a tím pádem i zvětšení přesnosti výpočtu. Druhá polovina práce se zabývá poměrně mladou metodou ELLAM a její aplikací pro řešení atmosférických advekčně-difúzních rovnic. Byla otestována konkrétní forma metody ELLAM společně s navrženými adaptacemi. Z výsledků je zřejmé, že v mnoha případech ELLAM překonává současné používané metody.

Knoll, Adolf,
The Manuscriptorium Digital Library is Europe’s largest digital library of manuscripts providing access to data from more than 120 institutions across Europe incl. ca. 55 most important Czech collections. In March 2015, it contained 43,372 fully digitized documents and more than 337,000 bibliographic records. The documents are not only of European origin (Western, Slavonic, Hebrew, Armenian ...), but there are also data representing Arabic, Persian, Ottoman, Indian and other manuscript traditions. The digital library was launched in 2003 by the National Library of the Czech Republic, in partnership with the Czech AiP Beroun Company. In comparison and in contrast with other aggregation services, it provides seamless access to full digital documents on the fly, reusing thus repositories of partner digital libraries. Users do not need to travel or to navigate from one physical place or digital library to another one to access needed documents. Manuscriptorium provides uniform interface to any data from any digital library that signed the partnership agreement. The internal metadata solution is based on the robust TEI P5 approach and suits both library and researchers’ requirements for description and structuring. It aggregates not only fully digitized documents, but also the partially digitized ones and bibliographic records. It contains manuscripts as well as old printed books, historical maps, and historical posters. The documents are mostly represented by digital images and in certain extent also by full texts, TEI-structured and unstructured. The Manuscriptorium larger environment provides also online support to TEI authoring and online metadata validation and upload. ...

The Role of Nurse in the Prevention of Disease of Civilisation
PAVLOVÁ, Martina
The current state Prevention is a complex care of a patient when we are trying to prevent from the occurrence or development of a disease, or when we want to prevent from its consequences and mitigate them. Recommendations for prevention set by a doctor must be on a scientific basis, and they must be a part of all branches of medicine. Their effectiveness depends on the cooperation between patients and medical staff. The basic and most efficient method of prevention is the health promotion and health education, which is closely associated with it. The term health promotion involves a set of activities and precautions for the purpose of making health better and sustaining it. Diseases of civilisation (hereinafter "DoC") are groups of diseases which are distinguished by their association to our lifestyles. Human body is more and more threatened from unfavourable influences of external environment, such as the quality of atmosphere, work environment and environment itself, the lack of physical movement, unhealthy diet, smoking, and alcohol consumption. The list of diseases of civilisation varies and changes together with our society and the development of our lifestyles. Among the most common or frequent diseases of current time are cardiovascular diseases, which involve atherosclerosis, hypertension, myocardial infarction, stroke, coronary artery disease and obesity. Furthermore, between civilization diseases include diabetes mellitus type 2 or cancer, etc. The goal of the thesis There are two goals set for this paper. The first goal was to find out what the role of a nurse in the prevention of diseases of civilisation was. The second goal was to find out what the above mentioned role of a nurse was from the point of view of patients. Methodology For the purpose of the research part of this thesis, qualitative research using semistructured interviews was carried out. Respondents were divided into two groups; the first one consisted of eight nurses working at internal medicine and neurological department of the hospital in České Budějovice and a nurse working in a private office of a general practitioner for adult patients. The second group consisted of eight patients of the above mentioned health facilities. Results According to our findings, nurses and patients have different oppinions on the role of a nurse. Nurses in disease prevention see themselves as an equivalent to a doctor when undertaking this practice and giving guidance. The patient speaks only to the nurse who emphasized what they were told by the doctor and reiterated the main points. They make available to them leaflets and brochures or Internet resources. In contrast, most patients see a nurse as a more important source of information than the doctor. Patients have the feeling that the doctor does not have enough time or does not want to be botherd with questions. Rather the patient turns to his nurse, which they sees as more appropriate and someone to whom they can confide in without bothering. Summary The goal of the thesis was to focus on prevention, DoC, and the role of a nurse in the prevention of such diseases, as well as to study this issue, look at it from the point of view of patients and nurses via the interviews carried out in this paper, and to analyse such information. Based on this analysis are published recommendations for nurses and patients.

Inclusive education opportunities for children with physical disability in nursery schools in South Bohemian region
HAIDEROVÁ, Lenka
This thesis focuses on inclusive education of children with physical disability in nursery schools in South Bohemian region. The authoress describes in theoretic part of its thesis individual kind of congenital and acquired physical disabilities, next she compares inclusive education with integration and present situation of inclusive education in Czech Republic, including looking at this education in the past. She writes about child development in preschool age too, and this of aspect his motor and cognitive development, socialization in nursery school and about specialty children's psychology of a child with physical disability, which differs from development healthy child. In practical part the authoress concentrates on the opinions of selected educational staffs (teacher) and parents regarding this phenomenon in education. Research sample contains nine respondents, of which five teachers and four parents, for teachers were prepared eleven questions and for parents nine. She used as a method of research semi structured interview, that she could ask for details and digress from prearranged question. The authoress wanted to know with this research, if these two groups would be willing to support this education and what they are the reasons for this. Next she ascertained attitudes of parents of children with physical disability and benefit of this education for children with physical disability and for other children, healthy. She donated to compare these opinions between educational staffs and parents too. Finally, she tries to compare opinions between educational staff and parent from one nursery school.
