The study focuses on analysis of the collection of historical graffiti preserved in the cave Býčí skála (Moravian Karst). Epigraphic relics preserved here, started to be produced around 1796, when the cave was an integral part of the Lichtenstein romantic landscape park. The research proved several touristic "waves of colonization" the manifested themselves in different character of the graffiti and their varied spatial distribution in the cave

This study investigates the incidence of temporary and permanent recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy (RLNP) and possible risk factors for patients with different types of thyroid gland diseases. 1224 consecutive patients who underwent thyroidectomy for treatment of various thyroid diseases between the years 2001–2005. The rates of RLNP were evaluated. The surgeon and type of thyroid gland disorder were recognised as possible risk factors for RLNP. The incidence of temporary/permanent RLNP for the whole group was 4.5/0.8%. The rates of temporary RLNP for groups, classified as multinodular goitre, Graves’ disease, thyroid cancer or Hashimoto’s disease were 4.3%, 4.3%, 5.2% and 5.7%, respectively. The rates of permanent RLNP for the same groups were 0.4%, 0.9%, 1.6% and 1.9%, respectively. The frequency of temporary RLNP for individual surgeons ranges from 2.8 to 7.0% and the rates of permanent RLNP is between 0–3.1%. There was no relationship between the surgeon’s experience (the number of procedures performed) and RLNP rates. Total thyroidectomy is a safe procedure associated with a low incidence of RLNP not only for benign multinodular goitre, but also for Graves’disease, thyroid cancer and Hashimoto’s disease. The rates of RLNP among individual surgeons are acceptable with small inter-individual differences.
The aim of this study was to analyze the quality of life (QOL) of 142 primary school teachers and 145 firemen-rescuers. To determine QOL we used a WHOQOL-BREFF questionnaire. Teachers’ QOL was significantly lower in all four domains when compared with firefighters’ QOL; however, it did not differ statistically from the Czech population norms. Significantly lower compared to the norm was only teachers’ satisfaction with their health. Our results showed a significant influence of profession, age and gender on QOL. The influence of subjectively perceived mental stress as a factor reducing the QOL was manifested only in teachers. The explanation for this difference in QOL could be predicting better physical and mental health of firefighters.
