Assessment of dietary and regimen knowledge in patients with acute coronary syndrome
Eliášová, Marie ; Vrablík, Michal (advisor) ; Šatný, Martin (referee)
Introduction: Acute coronary syndromes (ACS) belong to cardiovascular diseases and contribute significantly to mortality, morbidity and disability in developed countries. Therefore the aim of current therapy is to reduce the risk of subsequent complications, including early death, and to increase patients' quality of life. For successful therapy it is necessary to follow regimen and dietary principles which are along with pharmacotherapy an integral part of treatment. Therefore sufficient knowledge of these principles by patients is a basic precondition for their successful treatment. Objectives: The aim of the diploma thesis was to assess dietary and regime knowledge in patients diagnosed with ACS. The specific objectives were: to determine an effect of sex or previous education on the knowledge; to describe patients' dietary habits; to specify their knowledge of nutrition; and to identify which knowledge is the most deficient. Methods: The research was carried out as a questionnaire survey. The questionnaire was compiled directly for the purposes of this thesis and was approved by the VFN Ethics Committee for use in inpatient wards at II. and III. internal clinics and at the Coronary unit of II. internal clinics of VFN. A total of 80 patients diagnosed with ACS were included in the study....
Pachová komunikace a funkce roztírání moči v srsti u tamarínů žlutorukých (\kur{Saguinus midas})
MARŠÍKOVÁ, Ivana
The aim of this thesis was to summarize available information on types, functions and the occurrence of urine washing behaviour in primates. The main aim was to describe patterns of urine washing observed for the first time in the red-handed tamarins (Saguinus midas) and conduct preliminary analyses on available dataset. The effects of time of day, sex, reproductive status, and age on urine washing frequencies in red-handed tamarins were tested. The results were discussed with respect to possible functions (specifically socio-olfactory and thermoregulatory) of urine washing in red-handed tamarins.
