The skills, structures, and some common goals, have raised the Civilian-Military Collaboration, as one of the most reliable partnerships, in disasters and public health emergency management. This collaboration addresses all essential elements of disaster management, namely principles, objectives, standards and guidelines, staffing, structures, systems, logistics, clinical and non-clinical issues (triage and treatment), training, and management. The Islamic principle of cooperation (Taavon), guarantees the implementation and achievements.

The study was done by the library method and by reviewing authentic scientific and Islamic documents, as well as recording expert opinions through semi-structured interviews.

The participation of military and civilian medicine is necessary, vital, and unavoidable in important incidents and disasters. The most effective and beautiful strategy of this life-saving National collaboration becomes objectivity in the form of the Islamic culture of Taavon. The necessity, guidelines, principles, and goals of civil-military cooperation were reviewed in this article.

The coordinated participation of military and civilian medicine, based on the Islamic principle of “Taavon”, will save the lives of a wide range of affected populations and provides the maximum reduction of damages caused by these incidents.

Sandflies, like Anopheles mosquitoes, transmit diseases such as leishmaniasis and sandfly fever. If they can eat blood from a person, they can cause the above diseases. The holy defense has occurred in large areas of the Islamic Republic of Iran, especially in the southwest and northwest of Iran, and those areas have been the center of activity and reproduction of sandflies. This article is about sandflies and their control during the Holy Defense pays.

Iranian medicine is a school of medicine that emphasizes health maintenance and disease prevention using material and spiritual techniques inspired by the teachings of Islam and Ahl al-Bayt or household members of Prophet Muhammad (PBUT). In this paper, the prominent health factors in Iranian Islamic medicine are enumerated and reviewed. Reviving and applying these recommendations can significantly decrease diseases and promote health worldwide.

With reference to authoritative sources of Islamic medicine including the encyclopedia of medical hadiths (traditions), Helyatol motaghin, and Imam Reza’s (PBUH) treatise, the major topics or themes related to health are collected and stated along with multiple examples from each field.

Based on Islamic teachings, treatment is not in doing sinful acts, prohibited in the religion; the emphasis is on prevention and treatment is the next step. The basis of health and recovery is temperament (four humors) and proper diet and abstinence have a central role. Foods, medicines, mores, conduct, and spiritual factors are tools for prevention and cure. In other words, health maintenance requires multi-faceted control of body and soul (including air and climate measures, motion and rest, sleep and wake, foods and drinks, evacuation and retention, and spiritual interactions).

Iranian medicine is a comprehensive school of medicine. A broad range of material and spiritual recommendations even in the least important aspects of individual and social life which might seem trivial at first glance is indicative of the holistic view of this medical school and scarcity of research on these recommendations. It is recommended that fundamental research be carried out on various components of this medicine so that it could provide background for the practical revival and wide application of these axioms, taken from the certain knowledge of the Ahl al-Bayt (PBUT), in the health care and lifestyle system of Iran and the world.

According to the approaches of global arrogance and some enemies in using biological agents and the outbreak experience of epidemics and pandemics in the past, this study was attempted based on the results of studies and reports present in available sources to develop a coherent defense program along with providing coping strategies against biological agents and reducing their consequences.

This study was practical in terms of purpose and descriptive-analytical in terms of method. This study was designed based on the extraction of available sources and information, and scoping review method was used to integrate the information. In order to search for materials and collect data related to biological threats, reliable websites, and articles were reviewed by the library method. In the following, selected studies were screened and finally, information was extracted based on the required data.

With the opinion of specialists and experts and the review of the lists of biological agents, eight important diseases were selected including anthrax, plague, botulism, smallpox, tularemia, cholera, hemorrhagic fever, and brucellosis and coping strategies were studied in the available texts, guidelines and reports. Based on the results obtained in this research, a biological defense program was presented along with coping strategies against these threats.

The management of biological defense starts before the occurrence of a crisis in the form of predictive, preventive, and proactive measures and continues until the time and after the crisis, including countermeasures and reactions. If these measures are institutionalized in the form of a biological defense program and designed for the country's development (sustainable development), it will reduce vulnerability and create security against biological threats and hazards.

Health security is the activities and actions across government boundaries that reduce public health incidents to ensure community health. Health security is one of the pillars of human security and prerequisites for sustainable development. Communicable diseases are one of the main threats to human health. All-round community participation, fundamental investment in the vital components of the health system, strengthening the care system and laboratory network, and most importantly, the promotion of primary health care will be essential and crucial for health security. Cooperation and interaction at the regional and international levels are also considered inevitable requirements of health security. Health security is created only when there is a resilient health system and the problems and obstacles of the economic, commercial, and environmental determinants of health have been answered well. The permanent participation and role-playing of the country's healthcare network is of the highest importance for providing and maintaining health security.

During the imposed war, Iran was subjected to several chemical attacks by Iraq. Facing and managing this crisis than are accompanied by valuable experiences and rarely discussed learnings. Defense Health Research Center in cooperation with Salamat Radio with the aim of transferring the lessons learned from the imposed war and the management of chemical accidents that are rarely studied and discussed in academic forums, considering the conditions of the Corona epidemic in the country and the impossibility holding a conference and gathering in that period, organized a radio webinar for the first time in the country. This new measure is unique in the world. In addition to the routes announced on the web, which is the usual routine for holding webinars, this webinar was accessible and usable for everyone easily and free of charge through FM wave, 102 MHz band, through Radio Salamat. Using the capacities of national media can be effective in the synergy of academic webinars and expanding the range of users of academic topics.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the potential benefits of motor training in patients with complete thoracolumbar spinal cord injury.

In an outpatient physical medicine and rehabilitation clinic in Tehran, a preliminary clinical trial was conducted on an available sample. Twenty-five patients with complete spinal cord injury were included in this study. All patients were paraplegic and complete spinal cord injury was proven for them by para clinical methods. All patients participated in a comprehensive rehabilitation training program that was personalized. This program included a combination of the Swiss ball and the use of ankle orthosis, as well as ankle and knee long leg orthosis and the use of a parallel bar.

Fourteen of the participants were men and 11 were women. The age of the participants was between 19 and 52 years with an average of 31.54 years. Gait information, somatosensory evoked potential response and magnet motor evoked potential were recorded from all of them. Our study showed that individualized exercise program enables patients with complete spinal cord injury to move. After receiving movement intervention, the patients were able to walk and continued.

Movement training can stimulate the production of response in complete spinal cord injury. At the same time, motor training does not improve neurological deficits in patients with complete spinal cord injury.
