I see Andrew Dalke (who has made many contributions to Biopython
in the past) has in the last hour given you some useful advice here:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13652230/cant-get-entrez-to-return-mesh-terms-using-biopython
He pointed out some (older) records do have MESH terms,

while the newer record you tried doesn't (yet) have any MESH terms:
