The scientific monograph focuses on the characteristics of free radicals, reactive oxygen and nitrogen species, oxidative stress, and its impact on various diseases. A significant portion is dedicated to antioxidants, their classification based on multiple criteria, the characteristics of selected antioxidants in terms of their functions, manifestations of their deficiency and excess, and the overall antioxidant capacity of the body.

A special section is devoted to enzyme-based antioxidants, natural sources of antioxidants in the form of vitamins, trace elements, flavonoids, polyphenols, and coenzyme Q10. To provide a clearer understanding of antioxidants and their influence on population health, the monograph presents results from a research project included in the program "Research Support for Enhancing the Defense Capabilities of the Czech Republic in NATO Structures."

The research was conducted between 2010 and 2012 as part of preventive rehabilitation programs for professional soldiers with a sports component. The study involved 218 professional soldiers, including 180 men and 38 women, with an average age of 33.3 years. The current health status and dietary habits of the soldiers were assessed using questionnaires.

The study described the saturation of the observed group with antioxidant vitamins and statistically evaluated the relationship between their levels and the risk indicators for the development of cardiovascular diseases. Individual analyses were performed using the Reflotron device calibrated with Reflotron Precinorm control serum. Following blood collection, all participants underwent anthropometric examinations (body weight, height, waist circumference), blood pressure measurements, heart rate monitoring, and physical fitness assessments through simple functional tests.

This scientific monograph is suitable for the scientific community, students of medical, veterinary, and natural sciences, as well as public health students at all levels of university education. It is also intended for informed members of the public.

Publikace je anglickou verzí nejúspěšnější učebnice propedeutiky pro zahraniční ale i naše studenty. Česká i anglická verze knihy je studenty hodnocena jako didakticky nejlepší ze současně dostupných učebnic pro základní klinické obory. Studenti se systematicky seznamují naprosto srozumitelným a názorným způsobem s fyzikálním vyšetřením a interpretací získaných nálezů. Publikace provází medika jak po dobu studia, ale plně ji využije i ve své budoucí lékařské praxi. Knihu ocení i mnozí pedagogové.

Elektrokardiogram (EKG) je ideálnym nástrojom každodennej klinickej praxe. Objaviteľom elektrokardiografu je holandský vedec z mesta Leiden Willem Einthoven, ktorý za objav dostal v roku 1924 Nobelovu cena za fyziológiu a medicínu.
Aj keď je tradične interpretácia EKG nálezu doménou kardiológov, hodnotenie EKG by mal zvládnuť každý lekár v klinickej praxi. Preto je esenciálnou záležitosťou každého lekára, ako aj študenta medicíny oboznámiť sa s ľahko dostupnou vyšetrovacia metódou, ktorá nám dokáže poskytnúť veľa cenných informácií.
Táto učebnica bola vytvorená nielen pre akademickú obec. Bola napísaná predovšetkým pre lekárov, ktorí sa pri narastajúcom spoločenskom tlaku snažia prehlbovať svoje vedomosti a poskytovať čo najlepšiu starostlivosť o pacienta.
