This diploma thesis is focused on the analysis of the impact of population aging on household savings in the Czech Republic, United Kingdom and Germany. The aim of this thesis is to evaluate the impact of population aging on household savings rates. The first part of the thesis defines the basic concepts, their characteristics and describes the theoretical relationship between the aging of the population and the household savings rate. The next part of the thesis deals with the qualitative analysis, which is focused on the analysis of population aging development and the household savings rate in the monitored countries. The last part of this diploma thesis is focused on quantification of the impact of population aging on the household savings rate through multidimensional regression analysis. The results show that the impact of aging populations on household savings rates varies from country to country. In the Czech Republic, population aging increases the household savings rate. In the United Kingdom, aging population decreases household savings rate. In Germany, population aging is not significantly influencing the household savings rate. Household savings rates in Germany are significantly influenced by other determinants.

This diploma thesis deals with the use of the concept of age management in the corporate sphere. Due to the wide range of the entire corporate sphere, work has been narrowed down to service companies. The aim of the work was to find out factors influencing the efficiency of employees of individual age categories, to find information about the current state of use of age management and to formulate recommendations for the age management application for the management of companies operating in the field of services. The combination of qualitative and quantitative research was used to fulfill the aim of the thesis. Within the framework of qualitative research, 10 interviews with managers and personnel of selected companies were carried out and a questionnaire survey took place as part of quantitative research. The data from both forms of research was elaborated and results achieved the fulfillment of the main goal of the work, which was formulating suggestions and recommendations serving the management of companies operating in the field of services for successful application of age management.

The submitted dissertation of the PhD study programme Longevity Studies, Faculty of Humanites, Charles University, Prague was completed as a collection of the author's publications concerning the economic aspects of the long-term care in the Czech Republic. It deals with the contemporary problems on financing the inpatient follow-up care (after-care), long-term care, social care and home care. It is relying on the original data collected from the individual establishments during an on-site surveys and is seeking to bridge the gap caused by a lack of economic information on these types of inpatient care - less visible, but the more important. The first articles (as well as the concomitant text) describe the demography of the population in the Czech Republic and the factors with the main influence/impact on these types of care. It's worth to notice that our people spend more than 9 years in chronic disease in comparsion with the developed EU countries. And more - the tendency is deepening. The further articles bring unique results of an extensive cost analysis. This has been carried out in 61 establishments of the inpatient after-care with the total 8.768 beds in the Czech Republic and in the 72 home care agencies, covering the whole country. The enclosed tables give then the possibility to gain an...

NADPH-P450 oxidoreductase (POR) is a membrane bound flavoprotein that donates electrons to a wide spectrum of heme-containing proteins, among which are several steroidogenic and many xenobiotics-metabolizing enzymes. Given the important role of POR protein in drug metabolism and pharmacogenomics, there is a particular need to understand the contributions of POR genetic variants to these processes. Mutations in POR gene cause a disorder called POR deficiency, which manifests with a wide phenotypic spectrum ranging from disordered steroidogenesis to skeletal malformation, namely, Antley-Bixler syndrome (ABS). The aim of the present work was to investigate the POR gene in patients suspected to have POR deficiency syndrome from Czech Republic and to perform genotyping in Czech and Jewish control populations. We analyzed 644 alleles in unrelated individuals from the general Czech population and 1128 alleles in Jewish population, where 330 alleles were of Askhenazi and 798 of Sephardic Jews. We have also studied the impact of selected new genetic variants on POR activity and identified fourteen amino acid variations, two of which we have studied in detail to establish their influence on POR activity. Using the available human POR three-dimensional structure, we then modelled the newly identified variants...

Demographic approach in measuring human capital of Kazakhstan Abstract This work is intended to provide reader with information about the value of human capital stock in Kazakhstan using well-known so-called education-based and lifetime labor income-based approaches. Author tries to research the reproduction model of human capital in conjunction with institutional factors in transition, such as socio-demographic, political and economic changes, historical development and the current level of human capital in KazakhstanThe main goal of this study is determination of main components of human capital development in Kazakhstan, especially from demographic viewpoint through the evaluations of modern reproduction of human capital in Kazakhstan. The results of estimations indicate that the human capital stock has significantly increased in Kazakhstan during the period studied (from 2003 to 2008) and that it surpass the value of physical capital in the country. The potential of human capital augmentation has been estimated as favorable for upcoming years in Kazakhstan. Key words: human capital, population quality, Kazakhstan, demography, working age-population, education.
