The Technology of Ag-bag Composting and Vermicomposting.

The bachelor thesis is focused on technology of ag-bag composting and on vermicomposting (the produce of biohumus by earthworms). The thesis in its content uses existing accessible knowledge of biowaste composting. In the opening the processed waste, progress and time demands of technologic composting process are specified. Further, the quality and use of resulting product are described. In the next part the proper technology for both composting methods is chosen. The comparison of economic demands of initial costs for both assessed composting technologies is embodied

Patatin proteins relative abundance in correlation to antioxidative activity of tubers of cultivated and wild potato species

The aim of the thesis was to determine the content of pure tuber proteins, patatin relative abundance in total tuber protein, and subsequently its antioxidant potential. The theoretical part dealt with general potato characteristics, potato tuber chemical composition and description of analyzed cultivated and wild potato species. In the practical part results of laboratory analysis were presented. It was determined statistically significant genotype variability of antioxidant activity for potato tuber protein as well as for potato tuber dry matter here ranging from 0.221 (Solanum berthaultii 07S0300031) to 0.0066 mg of ascorbic acid/g dry matter (Solanum tuberosum cultivar Kuras). Any direct relationship between potato tuber protein content or patatin relative abundance and antioxidant activity was found. The findings are compared with the literature

Rinogenní očnicové komplikace – co se změnilo za posledních 50 roků?

The purpose of the study was to compare the incidence, diagnostics, and treatment of rhinogenic inflammatory complications over the past 50 years. Retrospective study of 292 patients of ENT department, University hospital: Group A treated from 1966 to 1995, Group B treated from 1996 to 2015. RESULTS: Preseptal inflammation was the most common type (73% vs. 74%), followed by subperiosteal abscess (21% vs. 20%). Surgery was indicated in 35% vs. 37% of the patients (p = 0.434). The most commonly used surgical approach was the external route (80%) in Group A and endoscopic endonasal surgery (60%) or a combination of endoscopic surgery of the paranasal sinuses and external orbitotomy (30%) in Group B (p < 0.001). The percentage of reoperations was 13% vs. 14%. In cases of revision surgery, the orbit was always treated using the external surgical approach. Complete recovery was achieved in 92% and 98.5% of the patients belonging to Group A and B, respectively (p = 0.622). CONCLUSION: Nowadays, the endoscopic endonasal approach is the most frequently used surgical technique for paranasal sinuses. The technique used to treat the orbital complication itself depends on several factors. Nowadays, the endoscopic approach is preferred. The external approach can be considered in the case of recurrent or persistent abscesses, especially if they are located in the upper or the lateral part of the orbit.Účelem publikované studie je porovnat výskyt, diagnostiku a léčbu rinogenních zánětlivých komplikací na Klinice otorinolaryngologie a chirurgie hlavy a krku v Hradci Králové v letech 1966-1995 a 1996-2015. Hlavní rozdíl je spatřován v dnešním, převážně endoskopickém, přístupu při řešení zánětů vedlejších nosních dutin. Zevní přístupy mohou být použity při opakovaných abscesech, zvláště pokud jsou lokalizovány v horní a laterální části očnice

Respiratory Epithelial Adenomatoid Hamartoma.

Respirační epiteliální adenomatoidní hamartom (REAH) patří do skupiny benigních sinonazálních lézí; projevuje se jako izolovaná afekce v nosní dutině a vedlejších nosních dutinách či v souvislosti s chronickou rinosinusitidou s polypy, výskyt může být oboustranný.Respiratory epithelial adenomatoid hamartoma (REAH) belongs to the group of benign sinonasal lesions, manifesting as an isolated lesion or in coincidence with chronic rhinosinusitis with polyps. Objective: Herein, we present clinical data of our REAH patients and provide an overview of the literature on the subject. Materials and Methods: Retrospective analysis of age, sex, symptoms, imaging examination, operation methods, and recurrence. Results: During the period 2013--2018, six REAH patients aged 48--76 (median 61.5 years) were diagnosed at the Department of Otorhinolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery, University Hospital Hradec Kralové. Before the diagnosis of REAH, the smell disorder was detected in five cases, nasal obstruction and secretion in five patients as well. In isolated form, REAH was found once at the posterior edge of the septum, twice in the olfactory cleft. In association with chronic rhinosinusitis with polyps, REAH was detected twice in olfactory cleft and once in ethmoids. Five patients have been operated by endonasal endoscopic surgery, four patients under general anesthesia and one patient under local anesthesia. Five patients are followed-up without recurrence (range 5 months -- 5 years, median 48 months). One patient refused surgery and is not followed-up. Conclusion: Respiratory epithelial adenomatoid hamartoma is a benign sinonasal lesion. Histological examination is essential for the differential diagnosis of lesions needing other treatment strategies. After complete surgical removal, recurrence is rar
