Methods: Bachelor thesis is divided into two parts - a general part and a special part. General part summarises the basic facts concerning the anatomy and kinesiology of the knee joint. This part also describes arthritic disease and its surgical treatment by implantation of total knee replacement. At the end of the general part, summary of the possibilities of physiotherapeutic treatment of patients with this diagnosis, is presented. The special part deals with a casuitry of a patient - woman -, which undertook the rehabilitation during my bachelor's internship at CLPA in October 2020. Moreover, this part consists of an initial kinesiological analysis, records of 6 therapeutic units, an output of kinesiological analysis and evaluation of the effect of therapy. Results: In general, patient's clinical condition improved in almost all monitored areas.

First record of Poltys nagpurensis (Araneae: Araneidae) from Iran

A female specimen of Poltys (Araneidae) is reported from southern Iran, representing the first record of the genus for the whole Middle East and its westernmost record in the entire Asian region. The specimen was identified as Poltys nagpurensis Tikader, 1982, previously known only from central and western India. Since the Iranian specimen differs in habitus morphology (but not in the epigyne), a brief description and comparison to the holotype with photos of the habitus and copulatory organs are provided.</p

Carinostoma elegans neu für die Weberknechtfauna der Slowakei (Opiliones, Dyspnoi, Nemastomatidae)

A new genus and species of small harvestman was found for the first time in Slovakia – Carinostoma elegans (Sorensen, 1894). One male and two females were collected in the Mlyňany arboretum of the Slovak Academy of Science (western Slovakia). Descriptions and photographs of both sexes of C. elegans are provided. Additional comments, and a map of distribution of all species of this genus, are provided.Eine neue Weberknechtgattung und –art wurde erstmals in der Slowakischen Republik nachgewiesen – Carinostoma elegans (Sørensen, 1894). Ein Männchen und zwei Weibchen wurden im Mlyňany Arboretum der Slovakischen Akademie der Wissenschaften nachgewiesen.

A new combination expands the range of the African araneid spider Singafrotypa (Araneae, Araneidae)

Study of the syntype of Larinioides subinermis, a species known from Ethiopia only, revealed that it actually belongs to Singafrotypa Benoit, 1962. We redescribe Singafrotypa subinermis (Caporiacco, 1940), comb. n., and provide a key to females of four species belonging to Singafrotypa. A distribution map for all species is provided

On Araniella and Neoscona (Araneae, Araneidae) of the Caucasus, Middle East and Central Asia

New taxonomic data for species belonging to Araniella Chamberlin & Ivie, 1942 and Neoscona Simon, 1864 occurring in the Caucasus, Middle East and Central Asia are provided. Three species are described as new to science: A. mithra sp. nov. (♂♀, northwestern, central and southwestern Iran), A. villanii sp. nov. (♂♀, southwestern Iran, eastern Kazakhstan and northern India) and N. isatis sp. nov. (♂♀, central Iran). Neoscona spasskyi (Brignoli, 1983) comb. nov., stat. res. is removed from the synonymy of N. tedgenica (Bakhvalov, 1978), redescribed and recorded from Iran and Turkmenistan for the first time. New combinations are established for this species, as well as for Araniella nigromaculata (Schenkel, 1963) comb. nov. (♀, north-central China) (both ex. Araneus). Two new synonymies are proposed: Araniella tbilisiensis Mcheidze, 1997 syn. nov. is synonymized with A. opisthographa (Kulczyński, 1905), and Neoscona sodom Levy, 1998 syn. nov. is synonymized with N. theisi (Walckenaer, 1841); the latter is recorded from Iran, Georgia, and Russia (Northern Caucasus) for the first time
