Awareness of families regarding the methods of speech therapy prevention
Get PDFTITLE: Awareness of families regarding the methods of speech therapy prevention AUTHOR: Monika Hroudová DEPARTMENT: Department of Special pedagogy SUPERVISOR: Mgr. Lucie Durdilová ANNOTATION: The aim of the theoretical part of this bachelor's thesis is to describe basic concepts related to the prevention of speech impediments, by using current literature, existing knowledge and research, characterize the most common forms of comminication disorder that usually occur in preschool children and inform about ways of how to prevent speech disorders, mainly primary ones (How can parents prevent the occurrence of speech defects among their children from an earliest possible age). Awareness of parents of the possibilities to prevent speech defects, of child's speech development and of thequality of related literature, will be determinated by a questionnare, this means a quantitative research method. Questionnare will be focused on parents with children between 3-4 years old

No full textFinal Death of the Author: Creativity in the Age of Information Society
Get PDFPretpostavimo da je kreativnost rezultat unutarnjeg dijaloga kreativnog pojedinca (autora) iz kojega nastaje nova informacija. No kako onda razumjeti kreativnost danas, kada je naša individualna svijest proširena elektronskim medijima i telemetrijski uključena u “globalni mozak”? Sveprisutnost informacijske i komunikacijske tehnologije omogućuje nam da stvaramo nove informacije brže negoli ikad prije i pohranjujemo ih u forme umjetne memorije, u koje može svatko ući. S obzirom na to čini se da je pojam autorstva prevladan, a unutarnji dijalog zamijenjen intersubjektivnim dijalogom. Držeći se teorije medija Viléma Flussera i Marshalla McLuhana, problematiziram novu paradigmu kreativnosti kakva se razvija u dobu informacijske tehnologije.If we assume that creativity is a result of the inner dialogue of creative individual (author), during which he creates an improbable combination of elements (i.e. new information), how can we comprehend creativity today, after we technologically extended our individual consciousness and connected it into a “global brain” via telematics? Prevalence of information and communications technology enables us to create more new information than ever, and allows us to store it in artificial memory, where it could be reused by almost anyone. In the age of ICT, author seems to be superfluous and the inner dialogue has been replaced by interpersonal dialogue. Taken into consideration Vilém Flusser’s and Marshall McLuhan’s theory of media, I will try to problematize new paradigm of creativity, as it is disclosing in information society

Trojno negativni rak dojke
Get PDFTrojno negativni rak dojk (TNRD) predstavlja 10–20 % vseh primerov raka dojk. Zanj je značilno, da estrogenski receptorji, progesteronski receptorji in receptor HER2 niso izraženi. Kadar je tumor negativen tudi za androgene receptorje, govorimo o četverno negativnem raku dojk. TNRD se v številnih lastnostih razlikuje od ostalih tipov raka dojk. Incidenca je višja pri Afroameričankah in mlajših ženskah. Histološko gre večinoma za invazivne duktalne karcinome, ki so v večjem deležu slabo diferencirani. Pogosteje pride do sistemskega razsoja bolezni kot pa do lokalnega recidiva. Pogosteje kot ostale vrste raka dojk zaseva v visceralne organe. Slabše je celokupno preživetje, čas do ponovitve bolezni pa je krajši. Edino učinkovito standardno sistemsko zdravljenje je kemoterapija. Med novejšimi zdravili za zdravljenje TNRD kažejo svojo učinkovitost zaviralci PARP in imunoterapija, vendar le pri določenih podtipih TNRD. Številne klinične raziskave na tem področju že potekajo
Potrójnie ujemny rak piersi — diagnostyka i leczenie
Get PDFTriple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) refers to about 15–20% of all breast cancer cases. It is characterised by theworst clinical outcome and poor prognosis. TNBC is defined by the lack of expression of estrogen, progesteroneand HER-2 receptors. Hormone receptor assays and HER2 testing is taken by immunohistochemistry examinationor fluorescence in-situ hybridization (FISH). Surgery remains the most frequently used mode of primary therapyand breast conservation have the same outcomes as mastectomy. Patients with TNBC do not benefit from availablereceptor-targeted therapy. Due to an absence of defined clinical targets, conventional chemotherapy remains thestandard treatment. Despite its worse clinical outcome TNBC when compared with other breast cancer subtypesoften exhibits superior sensitivity to chemotherapy. Many targeted therapeutic agents show promise in early stagestudies, but their clinical performance has yet to be definitively proven.Potrójnie ujemny rak piersi (TNBC — triple negative breast cancer) stanowi około 15–20% wszystkich przypadków tejchoroby i charakteryzuje się niekorzystnym przebiegiem klinicznym oraz złym rokowaniem. Terminem tym określasię podtyp raka piersi, który wykazuje brak receptorów steroidowych — estrogenowego i progesteronowego — oraznadekspresji receptora ludzkiego czynnika naskórkowego typu 2 — HER-2. Obecność receptorów ocenia się napodstawie badań immunohistochemicznych (IHC) oraz — w wybranych przypadkach — z wykorzystaniem metodbiologii molekularnej — fluorescencyjnej hybrydyzacji in situ (FISH). Leczenie chirurgiczne stanowi podstawową częśćwielodyscyplinarnego postępowania w przypadku miejscowego zaawansowania choroby, a rozpoznanie potrójnieujemnego raka piersi nie stanowi samo w sobie przeciwwskazania do leczenia oszczędzającego pierś. Pacjentkiz rozpoznaniem TNBC nie odnoszą korzyści ze stosowanych obecnie celowanych metod leczenia, a w obliczu brakuokreślonych celów dla nowych, ukierunkowanych form terapii chemioterapia konwencjonalna w tej podgrupienowotworów nadal pozostaje standardem postępowania. Mimo agresywnego przebiegu klinicznego potrójnieujemny rak piersi odpowiada na leczenie chemiczne i odsetek odpowiedzi jest wysoki. Badania w zakresie terapiiukierunkowanych molekularnie znajdują się na różnych etapach prób klinicznych, a ich wyniki wydają się zachęcające
