Sexual transmission of Toxoplasma gondii from males to females: experimental verification using laboratory animal model
 Navrátil, Jiří ; Kodym, Petr (advisor) ; Votýpka, Jan (referee)
Toxoplasma gondii is cosmopolitly living parasite which prevalence in human extends to tens of percent. In its life cycle it uses any homoiothermic vertebrate as an intermediate host. The definitive host are felines from Felidae family. The acute phase of infection is medically important in immunocompromised pacients and by its risk of congenital toxoplasmosis in pregnant women who never suffered from this illness before. Infection could have serious and rarely even lethal consequences in both cases. This thesis focuses on experimental verification of theory of sexual transmission of toxoplasmosis from male to female on laboratory mice. Possible transmission was tested in acute phase and latent phase of infection. The result was negative in both cases. Moreover, we observed the parasite's affinity to tissue of organs in male mice by PCR technique. Particularly, our interest was in comparing genital organs with others. It was discovered that lungs and spleen are the most infected organs in acute phase of infection. Toxoplasma was also present in genital organs (especially in epididymis) but not more frequently than in others. We observed statistically significant difference between sexual and non-sexual organs in acute and latent toxoplasmosis - non-sexual organs were more infected in both phases....

Sex-specific analysis of mortality for malignant neoplasms in the Czech Republic in the years 1994-2013

Sex-specific analysis of mortality for malignant neoplasms in the Czech Republic in the years 1994-2013 Abstract The aim of this bachelor thesis is to analyze and describe the evolution of mortality due to malignant neoplasms in the Czech Republic from 1994 to 2013 and to study mortality of malignant neoplasms by sexes in detail in the chosen spatial and temporal distribution for the purpose of identifying possible factors which can have an influence on differences between men and women. This thesis deals with mortality from selected causes of death in the malignant neoplasms in addition to the analysis of mortality for the whole group of malignant tumours. There was used standardized mortality rate as the main indicator of mortality and the probability of death by age and decomposition of the difference in life expectancy at birth by cause of death and age between 1994 and 2013 were also used as a more detailed analysis of mortality. During the reported period standardized mortality rate decreased for the whole group of malignant neoplasms and for most particular causes of death for both sexes. It was also found that the differences between men and women are rather decreasing, but for some causes of death such as malignant neoplasm of colon, malignant neoplasm of bronchus and lungs, and malignant neoplasm...
