Ela ? uma sin?clise paleozoica, que contem registros desde a forma??o e desagrega??o do supercontinente Gondwana. A bacia ? sustentada por um embasamento cristalino desenvolvido ap?s a colis?o entre as plataformas Amaz?nica e Brasileira. Em um contexto tect?nico de ruptura do megacontinente Pangeia no Mesozoico, que levou ? abertura do Oceano Atl?ntico, rochas ?gneas intrusivas (diques e soleiras) e extrusivas, de composi??o b?sica, acomodaram-se na Bacia do Parna?ba, que, do ponto de vista estratigr?fico, foram divididas em duas unidades: Forma??o Mosquito Eojur?ssica e Forma??o Sardinha Eocret?cea. A presente pesquisa tem por objetivo principal a cartografia geof?sica regional desses corpos magm?ticos com base em dados aeromagn?ticos e uma t?cnica de mapeamento semiautom?tico (SOM). O Matched Filter foi aplicado com o objetivo de decompor o Campo Magn?tico An?malo (CMA) da bacia em componentes relacionadas a fontes magn?ticas em diferentes profundidades. Com isso, foram obtidos os campos magn?ticos profundo (CMP), intermedi?rio (CMI) e raso (CMR). Como o CMI apresenta principalmente uma contribui??o causada por fontes magn?ticas em profundidades mais rasas na crosta superior, caracter?stica dos corpos magm?ticos da bacia, aplicamos as t?cnicas de filtragem espectral Amplitude do Sinal Anal?tico e Derivada Vertical nas anomalias magn?ticas do CMI, com o objetivo de real?ar ainda mais a resposta geof?sica dessas fontes magn?ticas, aumentando a resolu??o espacial do m?todo investigativo. Com base nas anomalias de alta amplitude e curto comprimento de onda, delimitamos dom?nios e lineamentos magn?ticos nos mapas aeromagn?ticos, correlacionando-os com os poss?veis corpos causadores. Assim, integrando os mapas geof?sicos com essas assinaturas magn?ticas ao SOM e ao mapa geol?gico, ? apresentado um mapa interpretativo com a distribui??o superficial das anomalias magn?ticas associadas ao Magmatismo Mesozoico da bacia. Os resultados indicaram que o Magmatismo Mosquito tem grande ocorr?ncia nas bordas oeste e sul da bacia, e o Magmatismo Sardinha est? concentrado nas por??es centro-leste e nordeste. Os dados de susceptibilidade magn?tica medidos nas rochas vulc?nicas da bacia individualizaram o Magmatismo Mesozoico, constatando que a Forma??o Sardinha exibe susceptibilidade magn?tica m?dia de 25,2 x 10-3 SI, aproximadamente duas vezes maior que a susceptibilidade magn?tica m?dia da Forma??o Mosquito de 11,46 x 10-3 SI, revelando uma diferencia??o composicional destes dois eventos magm?ticos. Associa??es entre as se??es s?smicas, os dados magn?ticos e o mapa geol?gico demonstraram que as anomalias do CMA e da ASA est?o relacionadas ?s soleiras e diques intrusivos, geralmente nos grupos Serra Grande, Canind? e Balsas, e s?o sensivelmente influenciadas por rochas ?gneas aflorantes ou subaflorantes. Por fim, as dire??es dos lineamentos magn?ticos revelaram que riftes de dire??es ENE-WSW e NNE-SSW, associados ? desagrega??o do Gondwana Oeste, e trends estruturais E-W e NE-SW, associados ? Zona de Cisalhamento Transbrasiliano, exerceram controle estrutural sobre o Magmatismo Mesozoico da bacia do Parna?ba. / The Parna?ba Basin occupies a large area in the NE portion of Brazil, covering several states. It is a Paleozoic syneclise that contains records from the formation and break-up of the Gondwana supercontinent. The basin is supported by a crystalline basement developed after the collision between the Amazonian and Brazilian platforms. During the Mesozoic break-up of the Pangea megacontinent, which contributed to the opening of the Atlantic Ocean, intrusive igneous (dykes and sills) and extrusive rocks took place in the Parna?ba Basin. In the stratigraphic context, those igneous rocks were divided into two units: Early Jurassic Mosquito and Early Cretaceous Sardinha formations. The main objective of this research is a regional geophysical mapping of these magmatic bodies based on aeromagnetic data and self-organizing map technique (SOM). Matched Filter was applied in order to decompose the Total Magnetic Intensity anomalies (TMI) of the basin in their components related to magnetic sources at different depths: Deep (DMF), Intermediate (IMF), and Shallow Magnetic Fields (SMF). As the IMF anomalies mainly present contributions from magnetic sources at shallower depths in the upper crust, characteristics of such magmatic bodies, spectral filtering techniques (Analytic Signal Amplitude and Vertical Derivative) were applied to IMF data in order to enhance the geophysical response of these magnetic sources, increasing the spatial resolution of the investigative method. Based on high amplitude and short wavelength anomalies, magnetic domains and lineaments were delimited in aeromagnetic maps and correlated with the possible causative bodies. Thus, the correlation of the geophysical maps with SOM solutions and the geological map allowed to propose an interpretive map with the surface distribution of magnetic anomalies associated with Mesozoic Magmatism in the Parna?ba basin. The results indicated that the Mosquito Magmatism has great occurrence at the western and southern basin edges and the Sardinha Magmatism is located at the centraleastern and northeastern parts. Magnetic susceptibility data, measured in the magmatic rocks, permitted individualizing the Mesozoic Magmatism.The Sardinha Formation displays average magnetic susceptibility of 25.2 x 10-3 SI, about two times higher than the values of 11.46 x 10 -3 SI obtained to Formation Mosquito, revealing a compositional differentiation of these two magmatic events. Associations between seismic sections, magnetic data and geological map showed that the high amplitude anomalies in the Analytic Signal and TMI maps are associated with sills and dykes intruded usually within Balsas, Canind? and Serra Grande groups, and are significantly influenced by outcropping or at near-surface buried igneous rocks. Finally, the directions of the magnetic lineaments revealed that ENE-WSW and NNE-SSW oriented rifts, associated with the break-up of West Gondwana, and E-W and NE-SW structural trends, associated with Transbrasiliano Shear Zone, exercised structural control over the Mesozoic Magmatism of the Parna?ba basin.

Were adopted the techniques of Classical Test Theory (CTT) and Item Response Theory (IRT) to adapt and validate two measures of Attitudes towards retirement. One of them is semantic differential (Osgood method) and the other is method of equal appearing intervals (Thurstone method). Were also used a questionnaire about Reasons to retire, the Basic Values Questionnaire and a demographic questionnaire. To meet the proposed objectives, two studies were conducted. The first involved a sample of 200 people over 50 years of age [mean = 57.37 years (SD = 7.51)], 63% are female, 61.3% are married or have a partner, average years of schooling of 14.01 years (SD = 9.71) and 65.80% retired. The results showed a unifactor structure for the two scales of attitudes. The semantic differential [(22 items) (α = 0.97)] had a mean item discrimination of 2.50 (SD = 0.85) and average psychometric information of 8.41 (SD = 3.81).The scale of apparently equal intervals [(30 items) (α = 0.87 )] had a item discrimination mean of 1.36 (SD = 0.56) and a psychometric information mean of 1.36 (SD = 0 ,11). With regard to the correlateds, there was a positive correlation of the subfunctions Interactive and Normative with the attitudes toward retirement, as well as positive correlation between More free time and Attitudes. The explanation of the interactive values on attitudes was mediated by More free time. The second study, besides trying to replicate the correlates found, tested reduced versions of Attitudes measures. The sample comprises of 230 participants, over 50 years [mean = 57.56 years (SD = 5.48)], 62.3% female, 65.1% married living with a partner, with an average years of schooling of 15.52 years (SD = 9.75) and 56.80 % retired. A Confirmatory Factor Analysis admitted a one-dimensional structure for the semantic differential Attitude Scale [6 items (χ2 / df = 2.14 , GFI = 0.97, AGFI = 0.94, CFI = 0.98 and RMSEA = 0.068)]. No significant differences were observed between the scores of discrimination of the two scale versions [p = 0.49, CI 99 % (LI - 0.48) (LS - 0.50)] .The same was not observed for the equal appearing intervals Attitude Scale (10 items) intervals, because the measure did not show evidence of sampling adequacy for factor analysis (KMO = 0.58), had low levels of fit (χ2 / df = 2 , 37, GFI = 0.86 , AGFI = 0.81, CFI = 0.60 and RMSEA = 0.078) and inadequate levels of scalability (Hs) ranged from 0.02 to 0.11 . According to the correlates, the semantic differential attitude measure showed, again, a significant positive correlation with the subfunction Existence (r = 0.15, p ≤ 0.05) and Interactive (r = 0.15, p ≤ 0.05), but in this study, no significant correlation was observed between the variable More free time and the subfunctions Achievement, Suprapersonal and Normative. Finally, we trust that these results can subsidize retirement preparation programs that uses the Human Values to enhance positive attitudes toward retirement. / Esta dissertação teve como objetivo principal verificar se os Valores Humanos poderiam explicar as atitudes frente à aposentadoria por meio das razões para se aposentar. Para isso, adotaram-se as técnicas da Teoria Clássica dos Testes (TCT) e da Teoria de Resposta ao Item (TRI) para adaptar e conhecer evidências de validade de duas medidas de Atitudes frente à aposentadoria, sendo uma de diferencial semântico (método Osgood) e outra de intervalos aparentemente iguais (método de Thurstone) e um questionário de Razões para se aposentar. Foi utilizado ainda o Questionário dos Valores Básicos e um questionário demográfico. Para responder aos objetivos propostos, foram realizados dois estudos. O primeiro contou com uma amostra de 200 pessoas, com mais de 50 anos de idade [média = 57,37 anos (DP = 7,51)], sendo 63% do sexo feminino, 61,3% casados(as) ou convivente com média de anos de escolaridade de 14,01 anos (DP = 9,71), sendo 65,80% aposentados. Os resultados evidenciaram uma estrutura unifatorial para as duas escalas de atitudes, sendo que a de diferencial semântico [(22 itens) (α = 0,97)] apresentou média de discriminação dos itens de 2,50 (DP = 0,85) e média de informação psicométrica de 8,41 (DP = 3,81). A escala de intervalos aparentemente iguais [(30 itens) (α = 0,87)] apresentou média de discriminação dos itens de 1,36 (DP = 0,56) e média de informação psicométrica de 1,36 (DP = 0,11). No que se refere aos correlatos, verificou-se correlação positiva das subfunções Interativa e Normativa com as atitudes frente à aposentadoria, assim como correlação positiva entre Mais tempo livre e Atitudes. A explicação dos valores interativos nas atitudes foi mediada por Mais tempo livre. O segundo estudo além de tentar replicar os correlatos encontrados, testou versões reduzidas das medidas de Atitudes. A amostra foi composta por 230 participantes, com mais de 50 anos [média = 57,56 anos (DP = 5,48)], sendo 62,3% do sexo feminino, 65,1% casados(as) ou convivente com média de anos de escolaridade de 15,5 anos (DP = 9,75) e 56,8% aposentados. A Análise Fatorial Confirmatória admitiu uma estrutura unidimensional para a escala de Atitudes de diferencial semântico [6 itens (χ2 /gl = 2,14, GFI = 0,97, AGFI = 0,94, CFI = 0,98 e RMSEA = 0,068)], não sendo observado diferenças significantes entre as pontuações de discriminação das duas versões da escala [p = 0,49; IC 99% (LI - 0,48) (LS - 0,50)]. O mesmo não foi verificado para a escala de Atitudes de intervalos aparentemente iguais (10 itens), pois a medida não apresentou evidências de adequação amostral para análise fatorial (KMO = 0,58), baixos índices de ajuste (χ2 /gl = 2,37, GFI = 0,86, AGFI = 0,81, CFI = 0,60 e RMSEA = 0,078) e índices de escalonabilidade inadequados (Hs) que variou de 0,02 a 0,11. Quanto aos correlatos, a medida de Atitude de diferencial semântico novamente apresentou correlação significante e positiva com a subfunção Existência (r = 0,15, p < 0,05) e Interativa (r = 0,15, p < 0,05), porém neste estudo não foi observado correlação significante com a variável Mais Tempo Livre e as subfunções Realização, Suprapessoal e Normativa. Por fim, confia-se que estes resultados possam subsidiar programas de preparação para aposentadoria que utilizem os Valores Humanos para melhorar as atitudes positivas frente à aposentadoria.

Computational methods in single molecule localization microscopy Abstract Fluorescence microscopy is one of the chief tools used in biomedical research as it is a non invasive, non destructive, and highly specific imaging method. Unfortunately, an optical microscope is a diffraction limited system. Maximum achievable spatial resolution is approximately 250 nm laterally and 500 nm axially. Since most of the structures in cells researchers are interested in are smaller than that, increasing resolution is of prime importance. In recent years, several methods for imaging beyond the diffraction barrier have been developed. One of them is single molecule localization microscopy, a powerful method reported to resolve details as small as 5 nm. This approach to fluorescence microscopy is very computationally intensive. Developing methods to analyze single molecule data and to obtain super-resolution images are the topics of this thesis. In localization microscopy, a super-resolution image is reconstructed from a long sequence of conventional images of sparsely distributed single photoswitchable molecules that need to be sys- tematically localized with sub-diffraction precision. We designed, implemented, and experimentally verified a set of methods for automated processing, analysis and visualization of data acquired...

The information in the medical records serve many purposes: they can be used for diagnosis and therapy, medical documentation contains information that can be the basis for financial authorities for treatment or for pumping reimbursement from health insurance. The data can be used in statistics and other scientific purposes. The aim of study is to verify the simplicity of data process implementation and time of data storing for modification of classical paper WHO dental card, lifetime dental EHR controlled by keyboard and lifetime dental EHR controlled by voice. All three methods were applied on 126 patients. At first the patients were inspected by a standard technique (communication between dentist and nurse) and the data recorded into the paper WHO dental card. The same person recorded all data to lifetime dental EHR using keyboard and using voice. Then we compared the time, which was needed for recording the data using these three methods. Using Friedman test we found very significant differences in time of recording among three methods (p<0.001). We can see that the paper WHO dental card was recorded quickly, but its rise due to missing electronic form is difficult. Times for recording data using keyboard or voice in lifetime dental EHR were not significantly different. The clinical practice...

Playing a musical instrument requires hours of exposure to a fixed position and a performance of greatly repeated movements. This excessive physical load in combination with other factors can often result in playing-related musculoskeletal disorders (PRMD). This thesis specifies the definition of PRMD, clarifies the idea of musician's medicine as a fairly new specialization, titles the most commonly occurring medical conditions and risk factors in musicians with an emphasis on guitarists (classical and electric guitar players) and pianists. It also offers recommendations on how to play these instruments with respect to the ergonomics. The aim of practical part of the thesis was to find the possible relation between PRMD and instrument playing among guitarists and pianists in the last 12 months. It was composed of three parts: questionnaire of musculoskeletal disorders, clinical examination and video-analysis of instrument playing. The study surveyed 401 guitarists and pianists without specified instrumental level. 19 of these participated in the clinical examination. The analysis of questionnaire data revealed PRMD in 55,6 % musicians mainly localized in neck (19,8 %); more specifically, in pianists in neck and both hands (equally 27,4 %); however, in guitarists in left hand (18,6 %). Asymmetry has...

This dissertation (thesis) deals with dilema of students with special needs at the high schools. It targets the individual ingress to particular teachers, special pedagogues or pedagogue assistants. From classified terminology are explained special disorders and defects of different sorts, diagnostic methods, integration of disadvantaged student and it's level. This work orientates as well on competence of special pedagogical centres and their cooperation with high schools. Theoretical part is complete with questionary examination, which was made at the high schools in Ceske Budejovice- Southern Bohemia.

Taking care of people with disabilities is dated back to history. Nowadays there are many ways how to take care, socialize and integrate people with special needs. For people with some handicap there are number of fences at the same time, which are impossible to break through without help of the other people. We can also find out that people with disabilities are exposed to some kinds of discrimination. The most severe fence for those people is that they have got nearly closed access to the labour market. People with disabilities belong in disadvantaged groups at the labour market and they are suffering from long-term unemployment. Sheltered workshops are one way how to integrate those people. People with health problems and with changed working ability work there. Working in the sheltered workshops isn{\crq}t only earning money. It is also a place where especially the disabled people can become members of society and can gain new experience. I tried to find out similarities and differences in running of chosen sheltered workshops. Based on my stay in Massachusetts, USA I chose to concentrate on describing non-government, non-profit organization called Road to Responsibility, Inc. In the Czech Republic I chose for the same purpose Domov sv. Anežky, o.p.s. in Týn nad Vltavou. In theoretical part of thesis, I concentrate on the problems of disability. I am describing history of care of people with disabilities, the types of disability, socialization and last, but not least jobs opportunities and self{--}fulfillment of peoplewith disabilities. The practical section of thesis is divided into two parts. In part one I am describing running of the chosen companies and their sheltered workshops and in part two I am graphically displaying found information. I chose to do research two different ways. The first one was secondary data analysis and content analysis. I also collected information from interviews, in which I talked to employees and managers of the workshops. Before I started collecting data I chose what information I want to find out, what documents I want to study so I will get the result I wanted {--} to find out the similarities and differences of the chosen workshops in USA and in Czech Republic. The information were e.g. rights and obligations of the clients, the founders of those companies, what do they offer, personal security, qualifications of employees, rates of pay for people with disabilities and last but not least what types of workshops each organization runs. Based on the information I collected, I realized, that certain differences between Road to Responsibility and Domov sv. Anežky exists. The main difference is different rates of pay for people with disability for their work. Another difference is how the rights of clients are exercise. I can declare that both my hypothesis were correct. I am convinced, that my work points out the similarities and differences, which exist in sheltered workshops in the Czech Republic and USA. But of course it is not the whole view of how the community works.

This thesis shows some methods which are used in an ergodiagnostic review. It also shows the legal requirements for work rehabilitation and useful tools to describe jobs. This thesis focuses on the cooperation between the rehabilitation centre in Pardubice{\crq}s regional hospital and the local job centre. The recommendations from the final report of the ergodiagnostic examination are compared with the job titles of patients who underwent the ergodiagnostic examination during 2006. The patients can see the benefits of the ergodiagnostic examination and have an awareness of their own work opportunities. The job centre expects the ergodiagnostic examination to show a detailed outline of the work potential of each client and to suggest the next steps. For example, these could be the confirmation or exclusion of proposed occupations, proposed possible future positions, recommendations for professional re-qualification or eventually for filing for a disability pension. The examination should present the physical and psychical tolerances of each client and draw attention to the circumstances and knowledge which has been gained through observation during the examination, such as goodwill, work motivation, communication, punctuality and so on. Afterwards, this situation is compared to the situation and experiences of the job centre in České Budějovice.

The aim of my extended essay is to evaluate some social aspects after amputations of extremities with children and adults. The work is divided into several parts. In the first theoretical part, the attention is paid to a history of amputations and some indications for an extremity amputation. At the same time, the summary of amputation lines of upper and lower extremities is set up here as well. In this part, there is a list of some indications leading to an amputation of an extremity, too. Besides, here is some theoretical imformation on the comprehensive rehabilitation, especially on therapeutic, social and working one. Some data obtained by evaluating my own research are presented in the practical part of this extended essay. The research was carried out with a quantitative questionnaire method. After the evaluation, all three determined hypotheses were confirmed. Hypothesis No. 1: I suppose the children and adolescents do not feel being seen at a disadvantage after the amputation of an extremity, which is brought by this treatment. Hypothesis No. 2: Women come to terms with the amputation of an extremity psychically worse than men do. Hypothesis No. 3: I suppose the amputation of an upper extremity is a greater handicap than a loss of a lower one, in consideration of one's asserting at the labour market. The practical evaluation contains all the comparisons of the research results with some specialized literature, too. The main contribution of my extended essay is the summarization of the certain points at issue and the facilitation of an easier orientation in a social situation after the amputation of an extremity.

The aim of this work is to find out whether the people after spinal cord injury are motivated enough to get work and whether emplozers accept their demand of part-time working hours because of their health condition. The method of this work was research, the form of questionnaire. The research was carried out in Prague, The Union of Paraplegics in the Center Paraple. 82 out of 95 asked respondents took part in the survey. The thesis consists of two parts. The first part is theoretical. It presents brief anatomics description of spine and central nerve system, the change of health condition after spinal cord injury as well as the psychosocial trauma of people wirh spinal cord lesion. Next, the teoretical part deals with komplex rehabilitation-medical, social, pedagogical and working one. The thesis focuses especially on the working rehabilitation, referring to one elementary human rights-the right for work. It deals with the problem of the handicapped people unemployment and its characteristics. Next the chapter of working rehabilitation deals with the legislation of handicapped people unemployment, especially the new unemployment law n. 435/2004 Sb. Nowadays we can no longer ignore international documents concerning the employment of handicapped people, mentioned in the final chapter of the theoretical part. The second part of thesis is practical. It includes the resultsof both, the survey and the questioning by phone. The data are processed percentualy and graphically. every graph has its own description. Then the results are discussed. People after spinal cord injury are motivated to work. Yet, there are many obstacles to the employment of these people, which may result in their desillusion and demotivation to work. One of such obstacles is e.g. the fact that potential employers do not accept their demand of shorter working hours. The final part of the thesis includes the conclusion, the list of sources and supplement.
