Theatre decoration? Set design? Scenography?
Vöröšová, Markéta ; KOUBSKÁ, Vlasta (advisor) ; CÍSAŘ, Jan (referee)
This thesis focuses on and compares the theoretical perception of scenography in the works of Czech aestheticians Otakar Zich and Růžena Vacková.
The whole comparison is integrated into the context of Czech modern scenography. Several key productions were chosen to demonstrate new tendencies that appeared at the specified time point in our theatre history. The thesis mentions theatre authors together with their works that played important role in forming Zich?s and Vacková?s opinions and theatre conceptions.
Taking into account how versatile personalities Otakar Zich and Růžena Vacková were it was necessary to bring up all areas of their activities. I attempted to summarize their professional careers and their influence on followers and I also wanted not to omit their life?s history . I deal with the importance of Zich´s key work Estetika dramatického umění and I also focused on personality of Vacková and the circumstances of the creation of Výtvarný projev v dramatickém umění.
It is a compilation work in which I try to present two approaches to the visual component of theatre performances. I compare their terminology used. I try to describe some aspects of scenography which Vacková developed under the influence of her predecessor and teacher and also the aspects that she was not in accordance with. Further, I focus on the problems of the possible forms of set design, connection between scenography and painting or architecture, and also on how the authors conceived the ideal scene, on whether they attached greater or lesser importance to stage directions and also on the problems of light, costumes, masks, stage objects?
This thesis should be perceived as a mere starting point for further in-depth exploration. There is a possibility to go deeper into details and/or extend the view so as to cover also other representatives of the Czech theatre theory with their scenography conceptions. I hope that, in the future, I will be able to continue working on this topic and to cover the history of Czech set desing theory in its integrity up to present days.

Biodiversity of standing floodplain waters and processes of its formation and preservation
Pithart, David
Water chemistry and planktic communities in the naturally eutrophic alluvial waters in the Lužnice floodplain have been studied. The floofplain waters are naturally eutrophic, with strong vertical physico-chemical gradients and oxygen depletions at the botom. Small pools and backwaters of this type have unique phytoplankton structure. Prevailing dominance of flegellates, namely Cryptophyceae, and low proportion of green chlorococcal algae and Diatoms, and almost absence of Cyanophyceae are very unusual for such eutrophic waters. Flagellate dominate thanks their ability to keep the vertical position in a permanently light limited conditions (resulted from poorly mixed water columns and intensive shading of water surface by vegetation). Floodplain geodiversity play crucial role, determining morphology and location of pools and backwaters, their exposition to flooding and inflows of underground water. Terrestial vegetation effects light exposition, leaf litter.

To issue of tooth backlash in dynamics of aeronautical and mobil gear systems with split power flow
Hortel, Milan ; Škuderová, Alena
In framework of internal dynamics of highparametric gear systems with split power flow the impact effects caused by greater dynamic than static-elastic deformations in the gear mesh have important role. They cause not only the additional dynamic load of gear pairs, but also violation of existence conditions of continuous carrier layer of lubrication. This make possible creation of dry friction in gear mesh with eventuality of self-excited vibrations rise and consequently decrease of gearing service life.

The mortgage crisis in the USA
Oslanec, Roman ; Šaroch, Stanislav (advisor) ; Bič, Josef (referee)
This bachelor thesis focuses on a problem of a mortgage crisis present in USA. It presents main problems connected with the current crisis situation at the mortgage market through standards of issuing new mortgages i.e. prime and subprime. It attempts to get closer look at the process of issuing the mortgages and tries analyze the conditions which have led to improper work of the system. Thesis deals also with the questions of appraisal and his/her appraisal standards. These eased appraisal standards of real estates could be considered also as one of the causes of current mortgage crisis. In the end, american companies Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are presented with their history and current status. To sum up, this bachelor thesis attempts to grant a look at the conditions of both the mortgage and the real estate market and tries to analyze the causes and reasons which led to the contemporary crisis.

Crisis - family break up-from a child 's view
Nevoralová, Monika ; Procházková, Jana (advisor) ; Hadj - Moussová, Zuzana (referee)
This graduation thesis topic is "Crisis- family break up- from a child's view". As the name Prompts, this paper is focused at the crisis in general, at the crisis in family and also? in detail? at the situation of family break up (or divorce) from a child's view. It is without doubt that the family plays a key role in child's development. It is the first community that a child meets in its life and from which it receives main ways of behavior which are necessary for its social existence. At the same time family is also a place, which is predisposed for getting into crises, family crisis is a period of explosive atmosphere and the family is more endangered by break up. At Present, divorce or family break up are widespread in our society. Beside divorce or partners break up a l s o informal family break up exists husbands or partners still live together but their mutual relationship is *i Very conflictful. Therefore it is possible to say that many children are endangered by disadvantageous s»uation in the family. In this work attention is aimed to children behavior during family crises, childrens' ideas about sřlving critical situations and knowledge of supportive measures. Closer attention is also given to children reactions to parents divorce, parents break up, forms of communications between children and...

The role of ATM in breast cancer
Soukupová, Jana ; Pohlreich, Petr (advisor) ; Souček, Pavel (referee) ; Foretová, Lenka (referee)
Incidence of breast cancer is continuously increasing in the Czech Republic. Tumor development is a result of gene alterations'accumulation, particulary associated with genes involved in regulation of cell growth and division. Hereditary carcinomas account for approximately 5-10% of all breast tumors and in 60-80% cases are caused by a germline mutation in the major predisposition genes BRCA1 and BRCA2. Nevertheless, other genes, mostly of lower penetrance, may play a role in breast pathogenesis such as the ATM tumor-suppressor gene. ATM is the apex of the repair pathway of DSB. This protein kinase activates through phosphorylation of its substrates cell cycle checkpoints, which leads either to the delay of the cell cycle progression until DSB are repaired or to the promotion of apoptosis. To sum up, the ATM gene seems to have a role in breast cancer development in a minority of the high-risk families in our population which is significantly lower compared to BRCA1/2 and it also seems to be involved in pathogenesis of sporadic breast cancer. Despite the ATM gene's length, we do not perform the preventive screening of this gene in breast cancer high-risk families. Nevertheless, we offer the molecular diagnostics of ATM to ataxia telangiectasia patients.

The endocrine function of adipose tissue and its importance for initiation and development of insulin resistance and diabetes
Haluzík, Michal ; Schreiber, Vratislav (advisor) ; Marešová, Dana (referee) ; Šeda, Ondřej (referee)
Endocrine production of adipose tissue is a very complex process affected by numerous endogenous and exogenous stimuli. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors-alpha (PPAR-) are important modulators of metabolic processes which can also affect endocrine function of adipose tissue. Recently, numerous novel factors produced by adipose tissue with important metabolic effects were identified. Some of them can directly bind PPAR receptors. One of the examples of these factors is fatty acid binding protein 4 (FABP4) which can directly bind PPAR receptors and indirectly modify its activation by changing availability of endogenous PPAR ligands -free fatty acids. We hypothesized that the mechanism of action of PPAR receptors to metabolic processes may partially lie in their complex interaction with adipose tissue-derived hormones. The unraveling of these interactions may have important consequences in finding approaches to treat patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. (...) In summary, our data show an important role for the interplay of PPAR activation and endocrine function of adipose tissue in metabolic regulations which may have important clinical consequences.

The influence of nobility on the shaping of polish nation
Szopová, Natalie ; Maslowski, Nicolas (advisor) ; Kilias, Jaroslaw (referee)
The goal of this essay is to illustrate what was the role of Polish nobility and its culture in the process of forming the Polish nation. The Polish nobility and its culture have been seen as unique in comparison to other European countries. Based on estimates of various researchers, the nobility in the Polish society at that time oscillate between 9-10 %. This fact had to form an extraordinary influence when creating a nation-wide Polish culture. We will focus our attention on the formation of the noble democracy itself, with regards to myth and tradition of Polish nobility. According to Walicki, not only the noble democracy had a strong influence on Polish patriotism, but also romanticism. We will mention the basic concepts of the formation of the nation as well. The purpose of this thesis is then to observe the early stages of the formation of the Polish nation. With regards to the importance of nobility culture, 19th century had a principal significance. In these times, we can see a modernization of some of the key elements, which are an inheritance of the nobility. These have then been absorbed and have become part of the new nation-wide culture. In conclusion, we will also introduce the longest lasting elements of noble culture and their presence in Poland during the 19th and 20th century....
