While teaching students searching for medical literature, I enforced the importance of expert searching, which started with
MeSH database. I also recommended students using MeSH terms associated with each citation as their search terms. For this purpose, I asked students to enter a PMID in the PubMed search box and find the MeSH terms. Interesting thing happened. Several students used iPad2 to search PubMed and they were forced automatically to use
PubMed Mobile version. They were not able to find the link to MeSH terms from the mobile site. After some look around, I wasn't able to find the MeSH terms, either.

What's the solution for that? Click the Standard PubMed link at the left corner of the page, and you will find MeSH terms.

Keep in mind that
PubMed Mobile is a light version of
PubMed. Standard PubMed link is always available somewhere on the mobile site. You can switch to it whenever needed.
