Physiological responses of plants to arficial light
Holečková, Barbora ; Münzbergová, Zuzana (advisor) ; Konrádová, Hana (referee)
The topic of this bachelor`s thesis is the physiological response od plants to artificial lighting, meaning artificial lighting from street lamps, which is one of the important anthropogenic influences. Artificial lighting at night is referred to by the acronym ALAN (from the english phrase Artificial light at night) and can have a significant effect on plant behaviour. In this thesis, the current knowledge on the influence of streetlights on not only plant behaviour but also on entire ecosystems is summarised in the theoretical part. In the practical part, the chlorophyll content of plants is measured, which is an important parameter informing about their physiological state, i.e. whether nighttime artificial lighting has an influence on it. Subsequently, the detected chlorophyll content of plants under street lighting is compared with that of paired control plants in their surroundings that are not under any artificial lighting. The measurements are carried out using a specially designed instrument for the detection of chlorophyll content in plant leaves called CCM300. The result of the work is the understanding of the possible effect of street lighting Key words Physiological reaction, artificial light at night, plants, chlorophyll

Bipolar disorder is a very serious mental disorder defined by mood swing of pathological nature. It is a chronic disorder, which strongly affects daily life of the patient. Its negative effects can impinge personal relationships and ones performance at work. According to WHO the bipolar disorder is the sixth in the list of main causes leading to lifelong disability. Altering between manic and depressive periods is very difficult, not only for the patient, but for the attending staff as well. In my thesis I will give a thorough characterization of the disorder. Theoretical findings on the topic were acquired via carefully done research in National Library of Medicine and via databases PubMed, Medline, Embase and Medvik. Theoretical part of the thesis is also enhanced with testimonies of actual patients with bipolar disorder. Their stories were acquired via books, research papers and internet discussion forums. I will proceed to refer about specific features of nursing practice based on particular case study of 65 years old patient with bipolar disorder. Medical staff has to aid the patient both during the manic and depressive periods while being greatly attentive. It is necessary to carefully observe behavior of the patient, their verbal and nonverbal communication in order to prevent unsolicited...
