title: Single case studies from a statistician's point of view.
abstract: In a clinical single case study the object is to decide whether a certain treatment has an intended effect on a certain patient. It is pointed out that the design should only be used in clinical situations where several rather strong assumptions are fulfilled. However, in these situations the design may be of significant value.
