Software pro automatickou extrakci dat k analýze mozkové konektivity / Software for automatic data extraction in analysis of brain connectivity

Bujnošková, Eva January 2013 (has links)
The brain; complex system people want to know about but still they are at the beginning of understanding it. There has been a lot of neuroimaging systems since developement of modern technologies and magnetic resonance imaging is one of them. In last days it isn't enough to examine only structural character of brain, the scientists are dealing with functional states more and more; the functional magnetic resonance imaging is perfectly good tool for this. There is a big amount of researches concerning individual brain regions but also a lot of them dealing with communication across the brain to clear up the causes of human behavior and functional failures. This thesis introduces the brain connectivity exploration, it uses the parcellation by anatomical atlases and it tries to use the knowledge of graph theory as one of the options to determine relations between brain centres and regions. The thesis introduces the software created for extraction of connectivity matrix resulting in graph processing and visualization.

Identifikace parametrů elektroencefalografického snímacího systému / Identification of the parameters of an electroencephalographic recording system

Svozilová, Veronika January 2015 (has links)
Elektroencefalografický záznamový systém slouží k vyšetření mozkové aktivity. Na základě tohoto vyšetření lze stanovit diagnózu některých nemocí, například epilepsie. Účelem této práce bylo zpracování signálu z toho systému a vytvoření modelového signálu, který bude s reálným signálem porovnán. Uměle vytvořený signál vychází z Jansenova matematického modelu, který byl dále implementován v prostředí MATLAB a rozšířen ze základního modelu na komplexnější zahrnující nelinearity a model rozhraní elektroda – elektrolyt. Dále bylo provedeno měření signálů na EEG fantomu a následná identifikace parametrů naměřených signálu. V první fázi byly testovány jednoduché signály. Identifikace parametrů těchto signálů sloužila k validaci daného EEG fantomu. V druhé fázi bylo přistoupeno k testování EEG signálů navržených podle matematického Jansenova modelu. Analýza veškerých signálů zahrnuje mimo jiné časově frekvenční analýzu či ověření platnosti principu superpozice.

Porovnání mozkové aktivity pomocí sLoreta mezi Feldenkraisovou metodou a vizuální stimulací / Source analysis and comparation of Feldenkrais inspired movement and visual stimulation using sLORETA

Novotná, Tereza January 2017 (has links)
Title of thesis: Source analysis and comparation of Feldenkrais inspired movement and visual stimulation using sLORETA Objectives: The thesis aim is to evaluate intracerebral source activity during a simple arm movement inspired by Feldenkrais method and to compare it with a visual stimulation of the same movement presented in a clip and with an imagination of the same movement. The movement inspired by Feldenkrais method was simplified to a repeated flexion of the dominant arm. Source analysis was evaluated from EEG and processed using sLORETA program, Methods: To obtain the data, experimental group was put together containing 12 participants aged 22-60, (mean = 27.2), both genders included. Participants were subjected to one-off measurement by the EEG instrument. Feldenkrais inspired movement of a flexion of a dominant upper right arm was investigated. The experiment constisted of six parts: 1. native EEG record with eyes closed and open, 2. active flexion of the dominant upper arm with eyes closed, 3. active flexion of the dominant upper arm with eyes opened, 4. watching video presenting repeated upper arm flexion, 5. dominant upper arm flexion imagination with eyes closed. Every part lasted for two minutes. Between individuals parts was inserted a pause. Obtained EEG data were processed with...

Využití standardizovaného ergoterapeutického nástroje "Action Research Arm Test (ARAT)" / Clinical Utility of Occupational Therapy Standardisee Test "Action Research Arm Test (ARAT)"

Typovská, Andrea January 2020 (has links)
The Action Research Arm Test (ARAT) is a standardized tool, which is used for fine and gross motor skills evaluation of hemiparetic patients after stroke. It is widely used abroad thanks to its excellent psychometric properties and easy administration. It is also used in many foreign studies to evaluate the function of upper extremity, especially for neurological patients. Unfortunately, so far it has been used only sporadically in the Czech Republic. In the theoretical part of this thesis the ARAT and the Modified Frenchay Scale (referred as "MFS") is described. In the practical part, the MFS is compared with the ARAT. The main aim of this diploma thesis is a pilot comparison of sensitivity of upper limb motor skills evaluation done by ARAT and MFS. Thirty patients after stroke were tested in the Rehabilitation Center Kladruby in three weeks. They were further divided into three intervention groups according to the severity of the paresis (light, medium, heavy). The analysis of the results shows that the sensitivity of both diagnostic tools is statistically comparable. According to the Spearman correlation coefficient, the ARAT and the MFS correlate very strongly in range of 0.96-0.98. The greatest differences were measured in the group of patients with moderate hemiparesis. In this group, the...

Modulační vliv monovalentních iontů na δ-opioidní receptory / Modulatory effect of monovalent ions on δ-opioid receptors

Vošahlíková, Miroslava January 2014 (has links)
The exact role of opioid receptors in drug addiction and modulatory mechanism of action of monovalent cations on these receptors are still not fully understood. Our results support the view that the mechanism of addiction to morphine is primarily based on desensitization of μ- and δ-opioid receptors. Desenzitization of agonist response proceeds already at the level of G protein functional activity. Long-term exposure of rats to morphine resulted in increase of number of δ-opioid receptors and change of their sensitivity to sodium ions. Analysis of the effect of different monovalent ions on agonist binding in δ-OR- Gi1α (Cys351 -Ile351 )-HEK293 cell line confirmed the preferential sensitivity of δ-opioid receptor to sodium ions. We have distinguished the high- and low-affinity Na+ sites. Biophysical analysis of interaction of lithium, sodium, potassium and cesium ions with plasma membranes isolated from HEK293 cells with the help of fluorescent probes indicated that monovalent ions interact, in low-affinity manner, with the polar, membrane-water interface of membrane bilayer. Key words: morphine, forebrain cortex, opioid receptors, G proteins, monovalent ions, plasma membrane, fluorescence spectroscopy.

Neuroanatomické aspekty nonmotorických účinků hluboké mozkové stimulace / Neuroanatomical aspects of nonGmotor effects of deep brain stimulation

Růžička, Filip January 2014 (has links)
Summery The underlying mechanisms of weight gain and other affective and cognitive changes after initiation of deep brain stimulation in Parkinson's disease are still unclear. Considering the functional organization within the subthalamic nucleus (STN); limbic, associative and sensorimotor regions residing in the medial, central and later STN respectively, we hypothesized that weight gain may be related to medial localization of stimulation, while motor improvement may be related to lateral localization of stimulation within the STN (study 1). We further hypothesized that stimulation close to the limbic and associative part of the STN may be associated with negative impact on limbic system leading to enhanced anxiety and changes in the hypothalamic- pituitary- adrenal axis (HPA)(study 2). Therefore, the primary aims our study were to assess changes in body weight (study 1) and the hypothalamic- pituitary- adrenal axis (HPA) (study 2) in relation to the position of the active stimulating contact within the nucleus. ...
