研究人员和从业人员都需要更多地了解实验室治疗方案如何转化为现实世界的实践环境，以及如何系统地测试临床创新并将其传达给持怀疑态度的科学界。单案例时间序列研究非常适合于在实践和实验室之间展开富有成效的对话。基于病例的时间序列研究的吸引力，在治疗前后都有多个观察结果，它们丰富了我们的设计调色板，为学科提供了另一种方式，将其经验范围扩展到实践环境，并将其主题扩展到个人变化的偶然性。这篇文章是一个用户指南，在临床实践或实验室环境中进行经验上值得尊敬的基于病例的时间序列研究。
Both researchers and practitioners need to know more about how laboratory treatment protocols translate to real-world practice settings and how clinical innovations can be systematically tested and communicated to a skeptical scientific community. The single-case time-series study is well suited to opening a productive discourse between practice and laboratory. The appeal of case-based time-series studies, with multiple observations both before and after treatment, is that they enrich our design palette by providing the discipline another way to expand its empirical reach to practice settings and its subject matter to the contingencies of individual change. This article is a user's guide to conducting empirically respectable case-based time-series studies in a clinical practice or laboratory setting.
