Podzimek, Michal ; Kočárek, Jiří (advisor) ; Kolombo, Ivan (referee)
Cancer of prostate is the most frequent male malignity and also it is the second most common cause of death in Europe and in the USA. There are 2 228 new cases reported in the Czech republic per year. The probability of occurrence of this disease is one to six during whole life. There is a good success in detection of his disease in the early stage due to development of screening methods. In such case the radical prostatectomy is very successful method of treatment. Besides of operation methods like open radical prostatectomy and laparoscopic prostatectomy there is a new operation method using robotic system da Vinci. The aim of this machine is to bring the advantages of the miniinvasive surgery together with keeping intuitive handling like in open surgery. First da Vinci system was bought and installed in the Central military hospital in Prague, Czech republic in 2005. The common knowledge about using this method is very low in both general public and specialists. Nor patients, neither their doctors often know about possibility of surgery using da Vinci system. The main objective of this thesis is to evaluate almost three years of experience of treatment localized prostate tumor using da Vinci system, and to describe its possibilities, benefits and disadvantages. Collection of 255 patients files aged...

Šplíchalová, Eva ; Trávníčková, Zuzana (advisor) ; Machoň, Miloslav (referee)
The United States imposed the longest lasting sanction regime on Cuba in 1960 as a result of strained relations in recent years. Each US administration modified form of the sanctions regime, depending on the attitude toward the Cuban issue. General Assembly, the highest authority of the UN, adopts not legally binding but politically significant resolutions. Resolution condemning US sanctions regime has been adopted annually since 1992. Discussion on changes of the sanction regime in the General Assembly is a sign of reflection on current events and unrigid process of resolutions adoption. The main purpose is to determine whether the changes of the sanction regime were mentioned in the discussions on the adoption of the resolutions. The result of the analysis shows the reflection of the events in the speeches of ambassadors. The amount of mentioned events in speeches depends whether they were positive or negative step toward easing the embargo, and also how important the event was.

Colorectal screening barriers in the Czech Republic
Vlasáková, Martina ; Háva, Petr (advisor) ; Kružík, Lubomír (referee)
The Diploma thesis deals with outcomes of the colorectal screening program in the Czech Republic. This program has been performed since 2000. Despite more than 11 years of its existence it is not considered as successful one. There has not been the decline of the incidence of the colorectal cancer and the change in the proportion of the stages towards the higher proportion of early stages. The program has long been struggling with the low coverage of the target population. This thesis asks what the barriers of better outcomes of colorectal screening program are. Moreover, it focuses on the program organization, its position within the healthcare system and barriers in the higher participation of the target population. The thesis discusses provider barriers, patient barriers and system barriers. The thesis builds upon the theoretical knowledge of the health policy, of the development of the colorectal cancer and of the making of screening programs. The thesis is based on the evaluation research; it uses qualitative and quantitative data. The research methods are the secondary data analysis, semi-structured interviews and the discursive analysis. The thesis leads to the knowledge that the better outcomes barriers can be seen in the program organization, which is not systematic, the program does not use the...

The siege of Olomouc in 1758 and its contemporary reflection
Borovský, Jiří ; Horčička, Václav (referee) ; Stellner, František (advisor)
The main topic of this thesis is a Prussian campaign which took place at the beginning of the third year of the war. It was then that Moravia got into the centre of war efforts. First, the thesis analyzes events which preceded this campaign. Apart from that, situation on other battlefields and initial positions of both opponents (Austria and Prussia) are dealt with. Particular attention is paid to political and predominantly military-strategic reasons which made the King of prussia decide to attack Austria. The analysis of the military campaign itself is anchored in older sources written in German. Correspondence of the main partakers, especially of the King of Prussia and the supreme royal army command, is used to provide a disinterested contemporary view of the issue. Memoirs of contemporaries, just as a diary of a burgher which experienced the siege of Olomouc, are used to depict the situation as well.

Between Prague and Vienna. Hermann Bahr and J.S. Machar and the spaces of (Central) European Modernism
Kostrbová, Lucie ; Brabec, Jiří (advisor) ; Fialová, Ivana (referee) ; Vojtěch, Daniel (referee)
This thesis deals with the relations between Czech and Viennese literary modernism during the 1890s, key amongst which were the contacts between Hermann Bahr and J. S. Machar. The contextual underpinnings, nature and significance of these relations are analysed in two monograph chapters. Chapter One focuses on the formation and transformation of Bahr's modernist programme as it moved between Berlin, Paris and Vienna, and an analysis is made of the programme keywords (Nervenkunst, Nervenromantik, Überwindung des Naturalismus, die Moderne, das gute Europäertum, Entdeckung der Provinz), which from the early 1890s found a response among Czech critics (e. g. F. Zákrejs, J. S. Machar and F. V. Krejčí). Bahr's conception of Viennese modernism and Austrian culture and the programme of the Die Zeit review were substantially influenced by Parisian experiences of the plurality of artistic production. Chapter Two follows developments in the work of J. S. Machar after he moved from Prague to Vienna in 1889. Machar's experience in Vienna is analysed in texts of various genres (lyric poetry, correspondence, autobiography, polemics and essay writing) and on the basis of his varying literary and intellectual contacts, while attention is paid in particular to his relationship with Jaroslav Vrchlický and T. G. Masaryk. A...

From the novel to the screen: metamorphosis of the narrator in Stendhal's Le rouge et le noir and its adaptations
Chytilová, Vladimíra ; Voldřichová - Beránková, Eva (advisor) ; Pohorský, Aleš (referee)
This work focuses on the transformations to which is submitted the literary narrator when a literary work is adapted for the screen. The object of study is the novel Le Rouge et le Noir by Stendhal and its two adaptations, a film by Claude Autant-Lara from 1954 and a television miniseries made by Jean-Daniel Verhaeghe in 1997. The first part of the work summarizes the theoretical concepts of four authors who deal with the narrator: two of them, Tzvetan Todorov and Gérard Genette, are literary theorists, the other two, Seymour Chatman and David Bordwell, are counted among the best known film narratologists. This is followed by a general characterization of the narrator in Le Rouge et le Noir and of the narration in the two adaptations. The following three parts of the work study in more detail three topics connected with the main character Julien Sorel: hypocrisy, ambition and love. The way in which these themes appear in the novel is studied and compared to the different ways in which they are treated by the two adaptations due to their different narrative strategies. The conclusion summarizes the differences between the novel and both adaptations and speaks about the possibility of an adequate transposition of the literary narrator into film.

Analysis of the motifs in the novel "Sansibar oder Der letzte Grund" by Alfred Andersch
Turinek, Jakub ; Stromšík, Jiří (referee) ; Tvrdík, Milan (advisor)
The aim of the thesis is to analyse motives of Alfred Andersch's novel "Sansibar oder Der letzte Grund" (Flight to Afar) which was written in 1957. The first chapter of the thesis looks at the West German literature in the first post-war years and then in 60's and 70's when both the German literature and public had to put up with the horrors of war and accusations of collective guilt. The so called "point zero" signalling the start of a new German literature is, somewhat, disputed. Twelve years of the fascist regime interrupted the continuity of German literature unlike in politics where this period marked the end of a political system. Immediately after 1945, the literary life in Germany was given a chance to analyse and process what had happened. Literature was written mainly by emigrants in this period. The volume of their production was large but many of these books could be published only after the war. The most popular genre was a historical novel. Not even authors of the "internal emigration" provided any new impetus after the war. Only the post-war literature in the FRG and writers belonging to the literary circle Group 47 managed to do this. The most frequent themes include the issue of the Nazi past, reflection of the post-war reality including the Cold War and economic miracle. In the 60's other...
