The thesis presents methodology of creating whole-fish dermoplastic models. It is primarily intended for teachers of natural history and biology. The results are based on mapping out both modern and traditional methods of fish taxidermy. By empirical verification and introduction of new methods, a comprehensive manual of fish taxidermy was created. It can serve as a useful didactic tool. Methodology also describes the issue of obtaining and preserving fish specimen. Profound knowledge of fish anatomy is a necessary prerequisite for specimen taxidermy, thus methodology also includes anatomical overview and guidelines for fish anatomical dissection. The output of the practical part of the thesis are dermoplastic fish models which became part of the specimen collection at the Department of Biology and Environmental Studies at the Faculty of Pedagogics at Charles University, where they are meant to be used for educational purposes. Methodological part of the thesis evaluates the experience gained during the process of model creation. Certain recommendations regarding suitability of particular fish species for taxidermy, material and tools required, choice of method and its advantages and disadvantages, were made. The thesis discusses several specific technologies, such as producing eyes for the...

I this thesis anatomical, physiological and functional information of certain parts of the human body organ systems after the damage of which a stoma must be performed is given. A stoma is indicated either after an injury, an illness or a loss of functionality and patency, It constitutes management of a life threatening situation and facilitates life restoration. Basic types of stoma are described, and since the most common type are colostomy and ileostomy, a greater attention is given to the disease and its treatment in the small and large intestine at the ends of which the stoma is created. The thesis also deals with the stoma aids, leisure time activities, psychological aspects of the disease, social problems and awareness of patients with a stoma. One of the objectives was to find out how patients with a stoma spend their leisure time and if they tend to isolate themselves from society because of their handicap. Another objective was to determine if persons with a stoma are sufficiently informed about leisure time activities they could pursue and where to get the information. The data needed to carry out this survey were obtained through studying professional materials available. The quantitative research method of interviewing was chosen, the data collection technique was an anonymous questionnaire aimed at a certain set of respondents as well as semi-standardized interviews with professionals who were given questionnaires for the respondents. The research set was formed by respondents with a type of a stoma mentioned in the questionnaire. It has been found out that the most common type of a stoma is ileostomy, predominantly in men. The research has shown that persons with a stoma isolate themselves from society and are not sufficiently informed about leisure time activities they could pursue. The research results should bring a better cooperation among professionals and thus enhance awareness and improve care not only for persons with a stoma. The outcomes of the thesis could make professionals produce literature concerning the life of persons with a stoma and update the existing information with new experience, advice and recommendations.

The goal of this diploma thesis is to prove, that compensatory exercise affects positively locomotor system of SK Benešov U16 football players. Theoretical part of this theses analyses all existing sources and literature from the field of compensatory exercises, muscle imbalance and body posture. Main research-method used in this thesis is an experiment. I choosed football players from the younger adolescents footballers category U16 and U17 of the team SK Benešov. Football players from group U16 are the experimental group, while the others from U17 are the controlling group. To test the locomotor system I have chosen testing methods for unstreched and weakened muscles invented by Janda, Kabelíková and Vávrová. To test the body posture I used Matthias's test. Suitable compensatory programme was created for the players, with regard to entrance testing, which they had to apply for six months.In the middle of the testing period a control testing was conducted, to help to evaluate the correctness of the chosen exercises. After the evaluation of the final testing a conclusion was drawn, that the compensatory exercises do have a positive impact on locomotive system and body posture of football players U16.
