Analysis of 6357 articles in the field of male infertility showed a significant increasing trend in the number of publications over the period 1995\u20132014. Obstetrics and Gynecology was an important subject category and Multidisciplinary Sciences was the newest interest. Authors were mainly from Europe and <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">USA<\/jats:styled-content>, with researchers from Cleveland Clinic producing the most articles, and those from the Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center and the University of Utah having the highest\u2010quality articles. The <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">USA<\/jats:styled-content> contributed the most independent and international collaborative articles. The Cleveland Clinic and the University of Munster were the most productive institutions. The Cleveland Clinic and the University of Giessen had the most international collaboration publications. Harvard University had the most collaborators. The most common interests were pathogenesis and therapy, and new interests were hypogonadism, obesity, and cryopreservation. In conclusion, rapid development of the male infertility field was observed. Overall, collaborative and multidisciplinary science research has become more popular. The <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">USA<\/jats:styled-content> and its institutions play a dominant role, followed by European countries. Thanks to the common research focus worldwide, more insight into male fertility has been gained in the scientific literature over the past 20\u00a0years.
