Quantifying Intervention Effects in Single-Case Research: A 25-Year Review.
Review in Behavioral sciences (Basel, Switzerland), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 effect size estimates to complement visual analysis has become increasingly emphasized in single-case research design (SCRD) studies in special education. This review examined trends in SCRD publication and ES reporting practices across three major special education journals (i.e., Journal of Special Education, Exceptional Children, and Remedial and Special Education) from 2001 to 2025. A total of 1969 articles were screened, yielding 194 SCRD intervention studies and 124 SCRD systematic reviews/meta-analyses. Results indicated a sustained increase in the publication of SCRD studies over time, accompanied by a marked rise in ES reporting. Overall, 42.27% (
