Risk factors during the prenatal period
Krátká, Michaela ; Šulová, Lenka (advisor) ; Šivicová, Gabriela (referee)
This bachelor's thesis is focused on risk factors during the prenatal period and is divided into two main parts: a theoretical section, which is the principal part of the thesis, and a practical section. The theoretical section is primarily a literature overview and aims to present the main group of risk factors that may already affect the child in the prenatal period. The conclusion of this theoretical section is concerning with ways of monitoring the effects of these risk factors, especially genetic ones. The practical section is focused on designing a research project aimed at monitoring the relationship between prenatal maternal stress and any subsequent occurrence of infantile colic of the infant. Keywords: risk factors, prenatal period, infantile colic, prenatal stress

Effects of early life stress on brain development
Hanišová, Lucie ; Kubová, Hana (advisor) ; Hejnová, Lucie (referee)
Adverse life experience during so called critical developmental periods is known to exert detrimental effects on central nervous system. Early stress may predispose to cognitive impairment, depression or other mental problems as well as to aggravation of existing neuropsychiatric problems. Consequences of early stress are highly age-dependent and affected by sex, genetic predispositions and type of stressor. In addition to prenatal stages, also postpartum period and adolescence are considered as periods of increased sensitivity to environmental disturbances of various origins (chemical, hormonal, physical and particularly social). Utilization of animal models is a direct approach to find out whether exposure to specific stressor alters mental functions and increases risk of behavioral problems. Animal studies also enable to study stress-induced molecular, cellular and structural changes and their role in later development of behavioral alterations.
