The incidence of suicidal behavior among drug addicts.
SKOŘEPOVÁ, Lucie
This diploma thesis on the theme: The incidence of suicidal behaviour among drug addicts in the theoretical part deals with the development of the drug scene in the Czech Republic, the EU drugs policy in the Czech Republic, selected studies dealing with drug use, health and social consequences of drug use. Also deals with suicide behaviour, its forms, types, methods and causes of suicidal behaviour, motivation, development of data collection and the treatment of suicidal behaviour. The aim of this work was to find out the most common reasons and ways of suicidal behaviour in addicts individuals in the psychiatric hospital of the Cerveny Dvur (hereinafter referred to as PH CD ). Another objective was to determine whether the clients have undergone a treatment PH CD after the suicide attempt. On the basis of the objectives have been created three research questions. Due to the nature of the investigated problem was as a research method chosen semi- structured interview with clients. Before the research was carried out in PH CD questionnaire survey on suicidal behavior for a team project GA JU No. 103/2013/S "The effect of systematic psychotherapy tailored to the incidence of intentional self-injurious behaviour".. Based on the data from the questionnaire investigation were clients selected for this diploma thesis. Interviews were conducted with eight clients of PH CD.

Internal equity principle in the context of company strategy
Kopecký, Martin ; Nový, Ivan (advisor) ; Háša, Stanislav (referee) ; Blažek, Ladislav (referee)
The thesis deals with the scientific problem of the link between the strategic management and the compensation system using the principle of internal equity. The work is based on two pillars, namely the qualitative research and own proposed solution. The first part of the thesis describes the qualitative research and the possibilities and the synergistic effects of linking business strategy and compensation system. The qualitative research is performed as a multi-case study and investigates the phenomenon in the practice of three companies from various markets (the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Bosnia and Hercegovina) and industries (finance, IT/Telco and FMCG). The research tries to find answers to the four research questions: How does business strategy influence compensation process? How can compensation support the realization of a business strategy? How can business strategy be linked with a compensation system within the principle of internal equity? How can compensation reinforce the strategic function of the human resources management? The research is based on the study of theoretical sources as well as on practical fieldwork. The qualitative research itself uses qualitative research methods for data collection, such as observations, questionnaires, and document analysis. The population questioned was top managers, line managers and representatives of HR department. In total, 142 interviews were performed by a single person. The collected data were analyzed and the triangulation was applied. The findings were summarized and generalized into a final report that brings answers to the research questions above. The research brings valuable findings used in the second, design part of the thesis. The own proposed solution consists of two main models. The first one is a simplified scheme of the compensation system and the second one is a model of strategic segmentation of jobs. The first model could be used successfully in the business practice as well as in education. The second model of the strategic job segmentation brings answer to the question of synergistic linking of business strategy and the compensation system within the principle of internal equity. The model brings valuable findings and a foundation for further theoretical research and its further development. The model also brings practical solution to the design of related policies and processes in the strategic management of human resources. By the design of both proposed models the main objectives of the thesis were achieved.

The development of Leishmania in the insect vector of the genus Phlebotomus
Kvapilová, Kateřina ; Volf, Petr (advisor) ; Bilej, Martin (referee)
The work was focused on the study of various aspects of development of Leishmania in vectors of genus Phlebotomus and can be divided into two main parts. In the first part, we studied the competition of Leishmania major and L. turanica during their development in the sand flies who are natural vectors of L. major using the experimental co-infections of fluorescently marked promastigots of these two species. While both leishmania species developed similar in the intestine of Phlebotomus papatasi, L. turanica prevailed in P. duboscqi in the late stages of infection. The fluorescent marking of Leishmania should allow us also to study possible genetic exchange between species at different stages of Leishmania infection (2nd, 9th and 14th day after the infective feeding). Using the flow cytometry (FACS) we have repeatedly identified dozens of objects emitting red and green signals in the intestinal homogenates of co-infected sand flies, however further analysis with confocal microscope disproved these objects as the hybrid promastigots of Leishmania. In the second part of this thesis we investigated the role of L. major genes HASP and SHERP, which lies on the locus LmcDNA16 and are expressed exclusively in metacyclics. We used mutant lines KO (lacking the locus LmcDNA16) and HASPB (KO line with gene...

International involvement in the peacebuilding process on Sri Lanka
Mojžíš, Michal ; Havlová, Radka (advisor) ; Burešová, Jana (referee)
The final months of Sri Lankan civil war, the 26 year military campaign between the Government of Sri Lanka and the insurgent separatist organization Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam, are marked by allegations of war crimes committed by both parties of the conflict, including attacks on civilians, summary executions of prisoners, enforced disappearances, restrictions on humanitarian assistance and recruitment of children. Since the attempts to put the Sri Lankan issue on the agenda of the United Nations Security Council failed on the unwillingness of China and Russia, the UN bodies in Geneva have taken a leading role in promoting the peacebuilding process on the island. The thesis aims to analyse the impact of the Geneva-based human rights bodies, in particular of the United Nations Human Rights Council, on the process of reconciliation in Sri Lanka, for which is crucial that the alleged violations of human rights in the last months of the civil war would be properly investigated and that the perpetrators would be held accountable. In order to put the activity of the UN Human Rights Council into broader context, the paper will examine the political development in Sri Lanka since the end of the civil war in 2009 as well as the failed efforts of Sri Lankan governments to launch the process of reconciliation.

The role of acetylation in the RNA recognition motif of SRSF5 protein
Icha, Jaroslav ; Staněk, David (advisor) ; Šenigl, Filip (referee)
Acetylation is emerging as an important posttranslational modification, which is found in thousands of proteins in eukaryotes, as well as prokaryotes. Global proteomic studies implicated acetylation in regulation of various processes like metabolism, gene expression, cell cycle or aging to name a few. In this work I set out to investigate the role of acetylation of a splicing regulatory protein SRSF5 by creating mutations in its acetylation site. I tested the hypothesis that acetylation influences SRSF5 interaction with RNA. I expressed acetylation-mimicking (Q) or non-acetylable (R) mutant of SRSF5 in HeLa cells and measured their interaction with RNA by RNA immunoprecipitation or in vitro by fluorescence anisotropy. Both approaches agreed that mutants interact with RNA less than the wild type protein and Q mutant bound RNA weaker than R mutant. I did not detect further difference in localization or dynamics among the proteins in vivo, which suggests that difference caused by weakened interaction of mutants with RNA was outweighed by other factors influencing SRSF5 behaviour, probably protein-protein interactions. I also found out that mutant SRSF5 proteins do not have a dominant effect on splicing of fibronectin alternative EDB exon. The data obtained give an indirect evidence for the hypothesis that...
