I'm not sure what you mean Marcia.  Try a search on "melanoma" and you
get a solid set of results explicitly labeled "Best Bets for Melanoma."


Perhaps you tried a search for which there are no best bets...in all of
these examples, best bets are only available for a limited set of
searches.

It's not clear at all that NIH is using "best bets".  Seems to me that
users should know this.
