Suggesting new words to extract keywords from title and abstract
When talking about the fundamentals of writing research papers, we find that keywords are still present in most research papers, but that does not mean that they exist in all of them, we can find papers that do not contain keywords. Keywords are those words or phrases that accurately reflect the content of the research paper. Keywords are an exact abbreviation of what the research carries in its content. The right keywords may increase the chance of finding the article or research paper and chances of reaching more people who should reach them. The importance of keywords and the essence of the research and address is mainly to attract these highly specialized and highly influential writers in their fields and who specialize in reading what holds the appropriate characteristics but they do not read and cannot read everything. In this paper, we extract new keywords by suggesting a set of words, these words were suggested according to the many mentioned in the researches with multiple disciplines in the field of computer. In our system, we take a number of words (as many as specified in the program) that come before the proposed words and consider it as new keywords. This system proved to be effective in finding keywords that correspond to some extent with the keywords developed by the author in his research

Carbon dioxide uptakes by acetylene by-products through gas–solid and gas–solid–liquid reactions
In this work, carbon dioxide uptake value by acetylene by-products was evaluated through two types of carbonation reactions. In the first reaction, solid acetylene by-products were reacted with a simulated effluent CO2 gas (10% CO2 and 90% air) and the maximum uptake value of carbon dioxide per unit mass of reacted solids was calculated. In the second reaction, the mixed solid acetylene by-product with distilled water at a specific mass to volume ratio was reacted with the same effluent CO2 gas to compare the maximum CO2 uptake value with the first reaction. It was found that a superior CO2 uptake in the case of G-S-L reaction with a value of 0.34 g CO2/g ABP over that found in the case of G-S system of 0.14 g CO2/g ABP. The fresh (unreacted) and treated acetylene by-products from both reactions were analyzed to study the effect of carbonation process on solids morphology, average particle size and carbon content. The structural and chemical characteristics of the fresh and carbonated acetylene by-products were investigated using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and thermogravimetric analysis. The fresh acetylene by-products showed a major structure of portlandite crystals. All carbonated products exhibited a calcite crystal structure but with different morphology and particle size for each specific chemical reaction

Author: Chohan, Arham, Lecturer, PDS Department, Pediatric Dentistry Division, King Saud University College of
Dentistry, RiyadhThe objectives of the present study were to determine the caries experience, oral hygiene
status and consumption of dates among Saudi female University students. A total of 406
female University students were examined for dental caries and oral hygiene. The information
about oral hygiene practices and consumption of dates was obtained through a selfadministered
questionnaire. The mean DMFT was 10.01 (SD 4.71) with a decay (D)
component of 5.87 (SD 4.28), missing (M) component of 0.83 (SD 1.44) and filled
component of 3.31 (SD 3.92). There was significant (p< .05) difference observed between the
mean DMFT scores of the students from various age groups. Only one-fourth (25.6%) of the
students had good oral hygiene. A positive correlation (p< .0001) was exhibited between the
mean DMFT scores and oral hygiene. Almost all (98.0%) students used brush to clean their
teeth. A majority of the students were cleaning their teeth twice (47.0%) or thrice (22.4%)
daily and only about one in ten (12.3%) students’ used miswak to clean their teeth. More than
three-fourth (81.0%) students were eating dates and about one-fourth (24.4%) of the students
were eating 5-10 dates per day. No significant (p> .05) correlation was observed between
caries and dates consumption. It was concluded that the caries prevalence and severity was
very high. Only small percentage of the students had good oral hygiene and eight in every ten
students was eating dates daily
