Chronic Pain finally gets its own MeSH

The wait is over! There is now a MeSH for Chronic Pain.

Of course, it's only been applied to articles added after the MeSH term was created (sometime in 2012), but at least in future articles on this topic will receive proper indexing.

And there was much rejoicing...

New search strategy for Chronic Pain in Medline:

"Chronic Pain"[Mesh]
OR
"Pain"[Mesh] AND chronic[all fields]
