MeSH (Medical Subject Headings) is the NLM (U.S. National Library of
Medicine) controlled vocabulary used to manually index articles for
MEDLINE/PubMed. MeSH is comprehensive life science vocabulary. MeSH has
19 categories and MeSH.db contains 16 of them. That is:
| Abbreviation | Category |
|---|---|
| A | Anatomy |
| B | Organisms |
| C | Diseases |
| D | Chemicals and Drugs |
| E | Analytical, Diagnostic and Therapeutic Techniques and Equipment |
| F | Psychiatry and Psychology |
| G | Phenomena and Processes |
| H | Disciplines and Occupations |
| I | Anthropology, Education, Sociology and Social Phenomena |
| J | Technology and Food and Beverages |
| K | Humanities |
| L | Information Science |
| M | Persons |
| N | Health Care |
| V | Publication Type |
| Z | Geographical Locations |
MeSH terms were associated with Entrez Gene ID by three methods,
gendoo, gene2pubmed and RBBH (Reciprocal Blast Best Hit).
| Method | Way of corresponding Entrez Gene IDs and MeSH IDs |
|---|---|
| Gendoo | Text-mining |
| gene2pubmed | Manual curation by NCBI teams |
| RBBH | sequence homology with BLASTP search (E-value<10-50) |
meshes
supports enrichment analysis (over-representation analysis and gene set
enrichment analysis) of gene list or whole expression profile using MeSH
annotation. Data source from gendoo, gene2pubmed and RBBH are all
supported. User can selecte interesting category to test. All 16
categories are supported. The analysis supports >70 species listed in MeSHDb BiocView.

In the over-representation analysis, we use data source from gendoo and C (Diseases) category.
In the following example, we use data source from gene2pubmed and test category G (Phenomena and Processes) using GSEA.

Users can use visualization methods implemented in DOSE (i.e. barplot, dotplot, cnetplot, enrichMap, upsetplot, gseaplot) to help interpreting enriched results.
