Harnessing Available Evidence in Single-Case Experimental Studies: The Use of Multilevel Meta-Analysis.
Review in Psychologica Belgica, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The use of multilevel models to combine and compare the results of multiple single-case experimental design (SCED) studies has been proposed about two decades ago. Since then, the number of multilevel meta-analyses of SCED studies steadily increased, together with the complexity of multilevel models used. At the same time, many studies were done to empirically evaluate the approach in a variety of situations, and to study how the flexibility of multilevel models can be employed to account for many complexities that often are encountered in SCED research, such as autocorrelation, linear and nonlinear time trends, specific designs, external event effects, multiple outcomes, and heterogeneity. In this paper, we give a state-of-the-art of the multilevel approach, by making an overview of basic and more extended models, summarizing simulation results, and discussing some remaining issues.
