Eating behaviour and personality traits of obese patients depending on BMI
Smutná, Šarlota ; Konečná, Judita (advisor) ; Žůrková, Pavla (referee)
This thesis analyses relationships and interdependencies between eating behaviour, perso- nality traits, and BMI in obese patients. In 2019, the prevalence of obesity was alarming in the Czech Republic, 77 % of working men and 56 % of working women were overweight or obese. The basis of successful treatment is to know patients very well, their history, indi- vidual habits and characteristics that led to the development of obesity. Eating behaviour and personality traits are important parts of this knowledge. They can help us to under- stand the mechanisms of obesity's development and thus also contribute to efective and individually adjusted treatment. We study eating behaviour by the Three-Factor Eating Questionnaire and personality traits by the Personality Inventory for DSM-5 and Beck's Depression and Anxiety Inventory in 598 obese patients (average BMI 44 kg/m2). We split the sample into multiple groups according to the values of BMI to test the diferences between these groups with various methods. Together with correlation coefcients and a linear regression model, we evaluate eating behaviour and personality traits' infuence on BMI. The most important fndings are signifcant diferences between women and men, various correlations of BMI to some personality traits and interdependency...

Tomanová, Michaela ; Starnovská, Tamara (advisor) ; Procházka, Ivo (referee)
The relationships between nutritional status, infectious diseases, and the immune system suggest that nutrition is an indisputable cofactor in the progression of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. One of the main complications of HIV infection is multifactorial malnutrition, however, overweight and obesity have become more frequent. A specialized nutritional intervention should be an integral part of routine medical care for people living with HIV. It has been shown that the incidence of wasting syndrome and critical malnutrition among people living with HIV has significantly decreased simultaneously with the side effects of modern antiretroviral drugs. The side effects of modern antiretroviral therapy are much less common than previous generations of drugs. On the other hand, the prevalence of obesity and other chronic diseases associated with it has increased significantly among people living with HIV. The practical part describes and evaluates the monitoring of eating habits of 10 people living with HIV. The aim of this work was to provide a summary of information about proper nutritional care for this population, to evaluate the eating habits of the respondents and to come up with a potentional nutritional intervention and education. Lack of macro and micronutrients and poor eating...

Křivánková, Anna ; Zamrazilová, Hana (advisor) ; Boženský, Jan (referee)
Obesity is a serious metabolic disease that often occurs in childhood. Up to 55 % of obese children continue to be obese until adolescence and then 80 % of these obese adolescents remain obese in adulthood. This diploma thesis follows the results of the first round of the study Childhood Obesity Prevalence and Treatment (COPAT). Analyzes the data found in 2009-2010 in relation with the results from 2018. The aim of this work was to determine the prevalence of overweight, obesity, metabolic syndrome, hidden (normal-weight) obesity and to examine the factors potentially contributing to the development of excessive body weight in the participants in the second round of COPAT study. After eight years, 12 % of the original sample, ie 246 probands (150 women and 96 men), were repeatedly examined within the diploma thesis. The examinations took place at the Institute of Endocrinology in Prague and consisted of fasting blood, clinical examination (blood pressure and pulse measurement; determination of body composition by bioimpedance analysis) and anthropometric examination. All participants also completed an on-line questionnaire consisting of three parts (personalized questionnaire; Eating inventory questionnaire; Baecke questionnaire of habitual physical activity). The obtained data were processed using...
