Get PDFTITLE: Crimp in socialization of people with cerebral palsy AUTHOR: Lucie Falcníková DEPARTMENT: Department of Special Education SUPERVISOR: doc. PaedDr. Vanda Hájková, Ph.D. ABSTRACT: The work is aimed at integration of people with disabilities into society. The aimis to capture and describe one of the most important parts in everyone's lives -integration not only in the class group but also approximation to the socialization into a whole society. The thesis is dividend into two parts.There are theoretical and practical parts. In the theoretical part we can find definitiv of cerebral palsy, its causes, incidence and forms. We also deal with socialization in different areas, whitch most affect the lives of respondents. The last komponent of the theoretical part is the isme of communication of children with cerebral palsy. The practical part describes the methods and results of research which captures socialization of respondents, especially thein perception of socialization. There search methodis a structured interview with open questions. KEYWORDS: Cerebralpalsy, dysarthria, socializationofthechildwithdisabilities, disabiliti, barrier
Application of chromatographic methods for the separation of metabolites of cholesterol
No full textAuthor: Bc. Lucie Tetrevová Title: The application of chromatographic methods for separtion metabolites of cholesterol Language: czech The proposed diploma thesis deals with the development and validation of analytical method for free and esterified cholesterol separation from blood serum and adrenal tissue samples. This method is neccessary due to the different metabolism of free and esterified cholesterol in the body and it enables the research of these particular pathways using stable isotope tracers. The solid phase extraction method was chosen, optimised and validated with following results: precision values 2.14% for serum cholesterol ester, 6.98% for tissue cholesterol esters, 2.91% for serum free cholesterol, 7.48% for tissue free cholesterol, limit of detection 1 mol/l and linear range 1-25 mmol/l were found. The stability of the derivative was tested for 30 days at temperatures 4 C and -25 C. The derivative was found to be stable for the whole time period in both temperatures. Laboratory temperature was not tested due to a high volatility of the solvent used. The developed method was used in experimental studies evaluating the influence of dietary cholesterol and septic shock to cholesterol synthesis rate
Past, present, future: LHC and future possibilities
No full textOpen problems in particle physics after the Higgs discovery
The discovery of the Higgs boson is the most significant outcome so far of the LHC experiments. This discovery addresses issues in our understanding of nature that have been on our table for almost 50 years. It also provides us a more solid basis on which to continue our exploration of the other open problems in particle physics, such as: what is the nature of dark matter? What is the origin of matter? Do all forces of nature unify? The future programme of the LHC, and the future facilities that CERN is planning and that will be presented in the following two talks, are tailored to address these questions.
Michelangelo Mangano
M. Mangano studied theoretical physics at Scuola Normale Superiore (Pisa, Italy). He held research appointments in the Physics Department of Princeton University (’84-’86), in the Theory Group of Fermilab laboratory (Chicago, ’86-‘88), in the Pisa laboratory of INFN (Italy, ’89-‘95). Since 1995, he works in the Theory Group at CERN. His research activity is focused on the study of high energy particle collisions, to understand the fundamental laws of nature through the observation of particles’ interactions. Between 1988 and 2000, Mangano has worked with the CDF experiment at Fermilab, where he contributed to the discovery of the top quark. Since 2009, he runs the LHC Physics Centre at CERN (http://cern.ch/lpcc), which contributes to the interpretation of the data arising from the LHC.

CLIC, a future linear collider at the foot of the Jura
The Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) is a linear accelerator under development. CLIC will allow to study high-energy collisions between electrons, e-, and positrons, e+. Contrary to protons, which collide in the LHC, the electron and its antiparticle, the positron, are genuine point-like particles. Proton-proton and electron-positron collisions are governed by different elementary forces. In general electron-positron collisions can be studied to higher precision and provide information that is complementary to what can be learned at the LHC. The on-going CLIC accelerator development, the physics questions it can address and the corresponding particle detector will be described in the presentation.
Lucie Linssen
Lucie Linssen is a senior physicist at CERN, where she is employed since 1986. She obtained a Master degree in Physics from the University of Leiden in the Netherlands in 1981 and a PhD from the University of Amsterdam in 1986.
She is specialised in the design, optimisation and construction of particle detectors and of complete particle physics experiments.
Within CERN she has held roles of technical coordination for the construction and operation of particle physics experiments and has served as the deputy department leader of the CERN Physics department. She is currently the spokesperson of the CLIC detector and physics collaboration (CLICdp), involving the design, technology R&D and physics studies for a large experiment at a possible future linear e+e– collider near CERN (http://clicdp.web.cern.ch/).

Future Circular Collider Options
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) with its 27 km circumference is currently the largest accelerator in the world. While with the experiments at the LHC there are still many exciting years ahead of us, particle physicists are now starting to develop visions and even first concrete proposals for the next big step in terms of a circular collider at CERN. The Future Circular Collider (FCC) will be a record-breaking project in many aspects, such as in terms of its overall size, or the collision energies to be reached. This presentation will explain the motivations for planning towards an FCC, describe the first ideas and proposals, and highlight some of the technical challenges which will have to be faced.

Lyme borreliosis
Get PDFAuthor: Lucie Kohoutova Title: Lyme borreliosis (Diploma thesis) University: Charles University in Prague, Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Kralove Field of study: Pharmacy Background: We investigated the presence of Lyme disease in the area of Havlickuv Brod based on laboratory diagnostics of specific or non- specific antibodies in the blood serum and in the liquor. The aim was to define typical laboratory signs of illness and recommend racional methods in diagnosis of Lyme disease. Methods: We used the data from Havlickuv Brod hospital laboratory of immunology. Patients were dividend into the groups according to the results of basic tests (if there were immunoglobulines type M and type G in serum or liquor), sex, age, the day of blood collection, code of diagnosis, patient's doctor and the type of running tests (ELISA, westernblot). These groups were compared. Patients with at least one positive result in basic tests and with any of additional test at the same time were divided in compliance with relations amongst these types of tests. We tried to determine appropriate interval between taking samples during monitoring the dynamics of the disease by contribution- based method. Results: More threatned by Lyme borreliosis are older women and people over the age of fifty- five. The highest number of new..
Relation between dramatic text and inscenation
No full textLucie Kryzová in her thesis addresses the issue of the relation between dramatic text and inscenation. The work is divided into two parts ? theoretical and practical. Firstly, used terminology is defined in the theoretical part. The author deals with crucial theories of Czech theater science (Jiří Veltruský and Otakar Zich?s work). Subsequently, she explores when a controversial relation between dramatic text and scenic piece is created, addresses the directors? apriorism and investigates the question of stylization of visualized theater. The second part has rather personal touch as it deals with author?s personal experience. Lucie tries to apply the findings from the theoretical part in her own work. She describes six semesters of her undergraduate studies of Directory-Dramaturgy
The Abstract Author
No full textThe Bachelor's thesis focuses on the concept of so called abstract author. It deals with various forms of abstract author's subject developed in literary theory and narratology: scriptor of R. Barthes, implied author of W. Booth, model author of U. Eco or abstract author of W. Schmid. Futher, the differences between the concepts and the polemics that accompany them (Chatman, Rimmon-Kenanová etc.) are reflected

Transmission of knowledge to manual workers.
Beyond ideological reproduction this study analyses the contradictions in the organization of technical curricula provided for the training of manual workers and employees in France. The author highlights the hidden curriculum and the nature of the conflict and relationship with the division of labor.L'analyse menée ici s'inscrit dans un courant qui se propose d'interroger l'institution scolaire dans les termes sous lesquels elle énonce sa fonction première : la transmission des connaissances. Plus précisément, elle cherche : à identifier les savoirs que l'école programme dans l'enseignement technique court, filière qui contribue à former les futurs travailleurs d'exécution ; à examiner les rapports qui peuvent exister entre la réorganisation du procès de formation intervenue dans ce dernier quart de siècle et les grandes tendances de l'évolution du travail ouvrier ; à voir si cette réorganisation n'est en définitive qu'une autre forme de qualification pour l'emploi ou si elle incline vers une qualification sociale plus générale.Tanguy Lucie.
