Phasal Periphrases in Portuguese
Jindrová, Jaroslava ; Zavadil, Bohumil (advisor) ; Černý, Jiří (referee) ; Svobodová, Iva (referee)
This dissertation aims to provide a survey of periphrastic aspectual constructions in contemporary European Portuguese. The research was initially conducted on periphrastic constructions in the two main Portuguese corpuses, the CETEMPúblico and the Corpus do Portugus, and was then followed by a semantic analysis. The main problem, according to the author, consists in the fundamentally different conceptions of aspect and the nature of verbal action in Czech and Portuguese. Given that the grammatical category of aspect has different contents in Czech and Portuguese, it is preferable to use the term aspectuality as a three-layer system of interacting categories of aspect, telicity, and the nature of verbal action. If the traditional Slavic aspect is to be expressed in Portuguese by other means at various levels of construction, Czech lacks a way to render the variety of meanings of Portuguese periphrastic constructions that represent the different categories of the nature of verbal action (Aktionsart). In the dissertation, aspectuality in Portuguese is considered a system of mutually correlated categories - aspect, the nature of verbal action, and the lexical semantics of the verb. In Portuguese, the category of the nature of verbal action employs specific means that can be separated from morphological means...

Status of soil organic carbon content of selected reclaimed sites in the Podkrušnohorská dump.
KOBESOVÁ, Martina
The main aim of this thesis was to assess the status of soil organic carbon in newly shaped soils called Velká podkrušnohorská dump in the Sokolov district and evaluate the information in relation to the physic-chemical properties of soils. Another objective was to determine the relationship between the stable and labile fractions of soil organic carbon. The amount of soil carbon (stable fraction) was measured in the solid soil samples and there was the analysis of basic physic-chemical parameters of the soil performed. The highest concentration of soil carbon was measured in the stand alders and larch. The amount of soil carbon (labile fraction) was measured in the water extract. The highest values were measured in the stand silver birch and alders. Based on this data the quotient of the labile fraction from the stable fraction was determined and the correlation of the labile and stable fractions was made. It was found out that the higher quality soils are located at the leafy trees, but it leads to leaching of organic carbon. The bulk density and coarse-grained soil fraction was determined from the physical properties and these data were used to calculate the stock of soil organic carbon. The highest value was measured in deciduous forests with small-leaved linden, in coniferous forests with larch. The stocks of soil organic carbon were converted into codes by land cover categories and the thematic map was created. It was found out that the leafy trees are much more appropriate for forest restoration, because they are characterized by the rapid initial growth, easily degradable plant litter and stable form humus. Deciduous forests are also characterized by more developed soil substrate, which is however unstable.

Nursing care of women after abortion performed for a genetic indication in II. trimester
FAJMANOVÁ, Dita
The finding congenital defect or chromosomal aberration by child puts a woman to big medical, ethical but also social problem, when she is forced to decide, if she should interrupt the pregnancy or to continue. By searching for abnormalities and pathologies in pregnancy is held by prenatal diagnostics. This involves cooperation of many medical fields such as obstetrics, ultrasonography, specialized laboratory and clinical genetics. The task of prenatal diagnostics is to reveal abnormalities in development of the child and to be able to interrupt the pregnancy, give information about following approach, to give possibility of choice, decrease fear and worries, and be able to cure the child in prenatal stage. Interruption is an action by which another development of the child is terminated. It brings many complicated situations, in which it is necessary to deal with them individually and in correlation with legislation. According to law it is possible to interrupt pregnancy after 12th week only in that case, when a life of the woman is threaten, or serious damage of child is proven or the child is not able to survive. If there are some genetic reasons for interruption, it is possible to interrupt pregnancy till 24th week and furthermore this possibility is valid when risk of damage of the child is more than 10% based on genetic examination. For interruption in second trimester it is necessary to choose sufficient method of interruption and provide a woman traumatic treatment to minimize the trauma. In this case the assistance of birth assistant is essential.This bachelor thesis is focused on problematic of interruption of pregnancy in second trimester based on genetic indication from decision of a woman if continue or interrupt the pregnancy all the way to nursery care during hospitalization. The aim of the thesis is to find out the factors, which influenced women in making their decision about interruption of pregnancy in second trimester a to find out their satisfaction with nursery care and attitude of birth assistants during hospitalization.In theoretical part the findings obtained from bibliographic sources were generalized. In practical part was done research for which was used qualitative method in form of questioning. For data collection technique was chosen structured interview. Interviews were done in department of conservative gynecology of Gynecological- obstetric clinic of Faculty Hospital in Pilsen in January, February and March of 2013. The focus group were five women, which were hospitalized here in that time with diagnosis of interruption in second trimester based on genetic indication. Obtained data were then categorized and for its interpretation some respondents´ citation were used.With research was found, that the decision making about interruption is influenced mainly by results of prenatal examination, standpoint of the partner and family and also suggestion of gynecologist. The decision is indirectly influenced by moral principles and conscience and also personal experience with damaged child. Satisfaction with nursery care and approach of birth assistants was expressed by all questioned women. They had some comments regarding organizational possibilities of medical facility. Two out of five respondents expressed need of more privacy, to be alone in the room. In their case it was impossible due to occupied single rooms. For three respondents it was unpleasant to go through interruption in delivery room. The research also revealed lack in satisfaction of psychical needs of respondents. The possibility of intervention with psychologist was offered only to two of them and all questioned women would appreciate intervention with psychologist already during decision making process.

Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation Syndrome in Critical Care
Kasperová, Jana ; Krška, Zdeněk (referee) ; Kvasnička, Jan (advisor)
We have conducted a retrospective study on disseminated intravascular coagulation syndrome (DIC) in critical care. The theoretical part of the study focusses on the epidemiology, pathogenesis, ethiology, clinical features, laboratory diagnosis, differential diagnosis, and medical complications of the disseminated intravascular coagulation syndrome, and describes the major therapeutic approaches. The aim of this study is to determine the etiology and outcome of the treatment of 29 patients hospitalized because of a DIC diagnosis in General University Hospital in Prague between January 2006 and December 2009, to analyse the changes of the laboratory test values over time, to see if there is any correlation between the chosen variables, and to assess confidence in the diagnosis of DIC according to the ISTH criteria for the diagnosis of DIC. The hypotheses that there will not be a significant difference between the gender, age and the laboratory values of DIC patients, that the mortality of septic patients with DIC will be a minimum of 50 %, and that the correlation between age, gender and the laboratory values in DIC patients will not be significant, were confirmed. On the contrary, the hypothese that the platelet count of all the DIC patients will be smaller or equal to 100 x 109 /l, prothrombin time (INR)...

Comparison of some spectral and temporal characteristics of German fricatives [x] and [ç] and Czech fricative [x] and their reflection in perception
Sedláčková, Petra ; Skarnitzl, Radek (referee) ; Machač, Pavel (advisor)
The aim of this diploma thesis is to analyze some of the acoustic characteristics of German fricatives [x] and [ ] and Czech fricative [x]. These sounds will be described and compared partly on the basis of spectral qualities of their noise, expressed by the so-called spectral moments (see chap. 3), and partly on the basis of their temporal characteristics. We assume to find a co-articulatory influence of the preceding vowel on the spectral characteristics of a fricative. We further assume that potential differences in values of the spectral moments, which can be, to a certain extent, considered an acoustic correlation of the place of articulation, can demonstrate a slightly different place of articulation of Czech and German velar fricatives. Using a perception test, we will attempt to explore a possible relation of German "Ich-laut" in the speech of German students of Czech to spectral mean values. The spectral moment measurements along with the perception test results may be found useful in teaching German as a second language for improving one's pronunciation. In practise, it can lead to an improvement in accepting a foreign speaker as an efficient user of the language.

Statistical aspects of nuclear collective dynamics
Macek, Michal ; Cejnar, Pavel (advisor) ; Kvasil, Jan (referee) ; Mareš, Jiří (referee)
The current PhD thesis presents a collection of selected articles related to the theoretical and numerical study of low-energy collective dynamics of atomic nuclei. The articles were published or recently submitted to international physics journals and were authored or co-authored by the author of the thesis. The eects in collective dynamics have been studied within the framework of two common models-the interacting boson model (IBM) and to a lesser extent the geometric collective model (GCM). The "statistical aspects" in the title relate predominantly to the interplay of ordered and chaotic behavior observed in properties of quantum eigenstates as well as in the classical limits of the models. The main attention was devoted to correlations between the measures of regularity/chaos and the presence of exact and approximate dynamical symmetries. An important subject of the studies were also the relationships between the properties of the classical and quantum solutions of the models both in the integrable regime as well as in the mixed regime containing elements of regularity and chaos simultaneously.

Money demand changes after the financial crisis in the V4 countries
Němcová, Radka
This thesis examines money demand changes after the financial crisis in the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovak Republic. For this purpose I used monthly data of industrial production index and monetary aggregate M1. These data were adjusted for inflation and transformed by Hodrick Prescott filter in order to perform moving correlation. Obtained results were further used to determine motives for holding money according to Keynesian liquidity preference theory or they were explained by Post Keynesian theory. Next I decided whether there is a possibility to identify particular phases of business cycle in the context of money demand. For the purpose of effective running of industries I determined styles of management suitable for recovery and recession phase of business cycle.

VACKOVÁ, Lenka
The aim of the thesis was assess the usefulness of different methods of technical and fundamental analysis in the trading of securities on the stock exchange. Choose the appropriate investment strategy for a particular industry.First has been performed a calculation of the theory efficient markets. For this purpose has been used two tests, correlation tests and runs test. The theory of market efficiency was demonstrated. But still has been performed the calculation of active strategies.Then was made the technical analysis. We used moving averages and oscillators, RSI, ROC and momentum. Based on these tests, we can´t select an appropriate investment strategy.Final test was carry out with using fundamental analysis. Fundamental analysis consist from testing addiction of revenue at coefficient alfa. Sector services shown 0. And at other sectors amount to possitive values. In last of all I advised pasive strategy.

Tax havens and causes of their use
Šodková, Karolína ; Finardi, Savina (advisor) ; Bušovský, Ladislav (referee)
This bachelor thesis concerns the tax havens and causes of using them. The object of the analysis is Czech legal persons in years 2009-2015. The correlation analysis has shown that neither Czech nor foreign corporate income tax rate belongs between the main reasons for using a tax haven. The causes shall be low rates of withholding tax levied on dividends and interest rates. In addition, taxable entities take advantage of tax havens so as to hide their delicate information, which has been proven by the correlation between their number and the rate of secrecy of the tax haven.

Jak velikost habitatu ovlivňuje společenstvo koprofilního hmyzu?
ZÍTEK, Tomáš
The effect of dung pat size on structure of dung inhabiting insect community was studied in Central Europe. Specifically all insect inhabiting the dung pat was targeted including both beetle and fly families. Abundance and species richness were positively correlated with increasing habitat volume. Density was negatively correlated with habitat size which represents low density refugee effect. Temporally co-occurring species which utilize the resource in similar way were separated by preferences for different habitat volumes.
