Notes on use
The MeSH template helps markup links to http://www.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/, the U.S. National Library of Medicine (part of National Institutes of Health).
Parameters
- OPTIONAL- the MeSH term.
- This is obtained by searching http://www.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/MBrowser.html. A search plugin for FireFox, Internet Explorer 7+, and other browsers that use the OpenSearch standard is available at http://sumsearch.org/searchplugins/.
- If no MeSH term is specified, the page name is used.
Examples
Articles
This template may be used within a ref tag when using the scope note field of the MeSH term to define the term at the start of an article. If this is done, be sure that the page name is either a valid MeSH term or a MeSH entry term.
Example: <ref>{{MeSH|Diabetes insipidus}}</ref>
Example from the article Diabetes insipidus:
Markup: {{MeSH|Diabetes insipidus}}
Result: [1]
Example from the article Syncope:
Markup: {{MeSH}}
Result: [1]
Definitions
When using MeSH terms for definitions, it is best to state the source only on the bottom of the definition page itself and not to transclude it onto the Related Articles pages which display the definition. For an example, see Amnesia/Definition, which the {{r}} template displays as:
- Amnesia [r]: Pathologic partial or complete loss of the ability to recall past experiences (retrograde amnesia) or to form new memories (anterograde amnesia). [e].
This is achieved in the following way, using the {{DefMeSH}} template:
Markup: <noinclude>{{DefMeSH}}</noinclude>
Result (only visible on the definition page):
This definition is at least in part based on: [1]
MeSH URLs
This template configures the url for: http://www.nlm.nih.gov/cgi/mesh/2008/MB_cgi?term=<<<MeSH term or entry term>>>
