Volume 8, Issue 0 (Special Issue 2023)
Abstract
Background: Providing emergency shelter for disaster victims is a part of disaster risk mitigation strategies. International organizations have proposed a framework for appropriate planning and emergency shelter design. These agencies are encouraging local authorities to manage events to use existing structures such as schools, community centers, etc., as emergency shelters for the victims. According to the social religious and spiritual status of mosques in communities, these centers are one of the crucial elements to create a safe and trusted shelter during disasters. This study aims to identify the role of mosques as emergency shelters in disasters.
Materials and Methods: This study was a systematic study that searched the words related to the research title (disaster management, emergency shelter, mosque) with AND, OR operators in PubMed, Web of Sciences, Science Direct, and Scopus databases, and the Google scholar search engine, as well as Persian language databases of SID, Magiran, Irandoc, and Iran Medex. A three-step screening process was used to select studies using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews And Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) checklist. Finally, the data were analyzed thematically.
Results: Out of a total of 175 articles found, 6 articles were relevant to the purpose of the study and were analyzed. The results of the present study showed that mosques can be suitable shelters for risk management during accidents and disasters. Also, in this regard, a range of strategies for designing programs for public participation and mosques were identified. 
 Conclusion: The services and the role of mosques in disaster occurrence as a shelter are very effective and these valuable services can be further extended using social capital, attracting the attention of religious institutions, and public participation.

Volume 8, Issue 2 (Winter 2023)
Abstract
Background: At the end of December 2019, a new infectious disease was reported in Wuhan, China. It was a new type of coronavirus named COVID-19. The spread of COVID-19 created an emergency in the global health system and the elderly was identified as a vulnerable group to the disease.
Materials and Methods: This is a systematic review conducted to manage the vulnerability of the elderly during the COVID-19 pandemic. Accordingly, all articles published in this field from the beginning of March 2019 to the end of June 2021 have been extracted from the following databases: Web of Science, PubMed, Scopus, Cochrane Library, Google Scholar, Irandoc, Magiran, MedLib, and SID.
Results: High incidences of COVID-19 are exacerbated in the elderly with cognitive disorders, immunodeficiency, malnutrition, use of various medicines and social problems, anxiety, distance from the family, lack of healthcare, history of falls, multi-drug use due to old age during the COVID-19 pandemic, in addition to the elderly with underlying diseases, such as kidney failure, diabetes, high blood pressure, arthritis, heart, and respiratory diseases.
Conclusion: The prevalence of vulnerability in the elderly was high during the COVID-19 pandemic, which can be a significant risk factor for health. Suffering from several simultaneous diseases, the number of medicines used, the history of falls, underlying diseases, and living alone were some of the vital determinants of vulnerability and considering the adverse consequences of vulnerability, difficulty in designing and implementing appropriate interventions and self-care education for the elderly and their families to manage drug use, treating chronic diseases, and preventing falls, it seems necessary to observe health protocols and stay at home.

Abstract
Background: Given the changes caused by COVID-19, modern information technology has gained a higher position, fostering the realistic comprehension of technology, developing an interdisciplinary program, and endorsing scientific and technological activities within the educational environment. Considering the advancement of information technologies after COVID-19, this study was conducted to explore the role of new information technology in shaping education during the pandemic.
Materials and Methods: In this systematic review, all relevant studies were searched in Medline/PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, ProQuest, Iran Medex, Magiran, and Scientific Information Database (SID) databases from 2019 to 2022. The analysis was conducted using a thematic analysis approach.
Results: Of the 1966 search results, 15 articles were included in this systematic review. These comprised 9 journal articles, 5 conference studies, and 1 thesis study. Data were extracted under two main categories—education and knowledge management—and four subcategories: Learning, performance quality, infrastructure, and planning.
Conclusion: Developing positive and creative skills in using new technologies is a complex process, which, through joint planning in multidisciplinary teams, can enhance technology-driven education. However, using new information technologies requires more support for educational leadership.
