		Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) is a huge controlled vocabulary (or metadata system) for the purpose of indexing journal articles and books in the life sciences.
		Using the vocabulary in support of database searches with the goal of scientific research often requires the help of specialized subject librarians.
		In MEDLINE, every journal article is indexed with some 10-15 headings or subheadings, with one or two of them designated as major and marked with an asterisk.
