The purpose of this paper is to analyze and map scientific productions in the field of Endocrinology in the Middle East between 2007-2013. The study population consists of all scientific outputs in the field of Endocrinology from 17 middle-east countries. HistCite software was used for visualization of scientific outputs. Turkey is the leading country in the Middle East in terms of the total number of publications and both local and global citations. While, Iran achieved the second rank regarding the total number of publications and local citations, as well as the third rank with regard to the number of global citations. Topically performed clusters based on both local and global citations show that Diabetes Mellitus is the priority of research in the field of endocrinology. This study shows an increasing trend of scientific outputs in the field of endocrinology. Furthermore, evaluation of the topically performed clusters shows that the largest number of these research are conducted on Diabetes Mellitus.
