MeSH (Medical Subject Headings)

Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) is a controlled vocabulary used by databases like PubMed to categorize and index biomedical literature. It provides a standardized set of terms that enables researchers and healthcare professionals to efficiently find and organize information on specific topics, diseases, or treatments. By using MeSH terms, users can conduct more effective searches and retrieve relevant articles, ensuring that they access comprehensive and precise scientific information. This system helps streamline research and enhances communication within the medical and scientific communities.
