Comparison of factors affecting the origin of overweight and obesity at seven years old children and adolescents
Hanusová, Tereza ; Kunešová, Marie (advisor) ; Vignerová, Jana (referee)
This diploma thesis is based on a study of seven year old children Childhood Obesity Surveillance Initiative (COSI) processed by Institute of Endocrinology sponsored by WHO Europe and MZ ČR and on a study of adolescents Childhood Obesity Prevalence And Treatment (COPAT) organized by Institute of Endocrinology sponsored by Norway grants and MŠMT ČR. These studies were focused on the prevalence of overweight and obesity among children and adolescents and on factors possibly related to origin of overweight and obesity. Obesity is a severe chronical multifactorial disease that significantly affects health conditions and development of children. Obesity, as a risk factor, is involved in origin of cardiometabolic problems (II. type diabetes mellitus, ischemic heart disease, hypertension, dyslipidemia), cancer, musculosceletal problems and reproductive system disorders (infertility, hypogonadism, polycystic ovary syndrome, disorders of sexual development in children). Preventive programs, focused on childhood obesity, are important part of health care. These programs are based on results of factors involved in the origin of obesity. The aim of this thesis is determine and compare the prevalence of overweight and obesity in seven year old children and adolescents by classification of Czech republic, WHO...

Overweight and obesity in seven-year children: influence of environmental factors, change since 2008
Metelcová, Tereza ; Kunešová, Marie (advisor) ; Vignerová, Jana (referee)
Obesity is defined as excessive accumulation of adipose tissue in the body. Obesity is measured using the Body Mass Index (BMI). In children, BMI is adjusted according to age. Simple obesity is a multifactorial disease. The aim of my work is to find out the influence of environmental factors (dietary habits, sleeping times, parents' education, lack of physical activity) on overweight and obesity in seven-year-old children in the Czech Republic, prevalence of overweight and obesity in seven years old children in the Czech Republic according to various reference methods (WHO, CAV, IOTF, CDC). The diploma thesis is based on the Childhood Obesity Surveillance Initiative (COSI). In 2016, the fourth round of the COSI project in the Czech Republic took place. Measurement of seven-year-old children took place in the framework of preventive examinations with GPs. Part of the project was the completion of questionnaires by the family and the school. In the fourth round, data were obtained from 1,718 children (824 boys, 894 girls) in the age category of 6.5 to 7.99 years. Between 2013 and 2016, the prevalence of overweight of boys increased by 2.16% (from 11.78 % to 13.94) and increased by 0.9 % for girls (from 12.75 % to 13.65 %). The prevalence of obesity between 2013 and 2016 increased by 0.79 % (from...

Overweight and obesity in seven-year children and adipose tissue distribution
Vodrážková, Nicole ; Kunešová, Marie (advisor) ; Vignerová, Jana (referee)
This diploma thesis is based on the fourth round of the Childhood Obesity Surveillance Initiative. From 1718 children aged 6.5 - 7.99 were collected anthropometric data and characteristics of family and school environment. Prevalence of overweight and obesity, risk distributions of adipose tissue and evaluation of factors affecting abdominal obesity was evaluated. Increase of overweight and obesity was found for boys, increase of overweight and loose of obesity was found for girls. Elevated waist circumference and WHtR were evaluated in both sexes. Year-on-year changes are not statistically significant, overall the stagnating trend of child overweight and obesity has been evaluated. High WHtR was also shown by individuals in normal weight category. Of the rated family characteristics, family anamnesis of obesity, weight of parents, time spent with TV / computers, and mother's education is primarily involved in the risky distribution of fatty tissue. Keywords overweight, obesity, prevalence, nutrition, physical activity, WHtR, waist circumference

The Current Situation in the Existence and Use of National Growth Standards in Europe and in the World Context
Hrušková, Hana ; Riedlová, Jitka (advisor) ; Vignerová, Jana (referee)
The aim of the thesis was to map the current state of the occurrence and the subsequent use of national reference data and on the basis of the data created growth charts with focusing mainly on European countries. Growth charts are an indispensable part of pediatric practice because of ease of use when assessing a child's development. Due to the secular trend, however, it is necessary to periodically update these graphs that they best resemble the growth of children population and to avoid false positives, eg. at pubertal spurt. The results of our analysis show that there are currently in use of growth references three basic trends: 1) is used only growth standards of the World Health Organization (WHO), for example: Serbia, Switzerland, Ukraine, 2) a combination of the standards of WHO and national reference for example: United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, Poland, and 3) use of only national references and concretely in the Czech Republic and mainly in states of northwestern Europe, eg. the Federal Republic of Germany and Finland.
