Single item sorts

[Esmo2000]

Hi all, looking for a bit of help and was wondering if anyone here could provide some answers!

I have a columnar list, and with it I have summaries after several types of sorts. All of these summaries are to appear, and contain (basically) the same information. Obviously, if the sorts have a lot of data to work with, and some distancing appears, then I want to have each of these summaries appear. However, if I have just a single item, is there any way I can go about just ignoring summaries for single items? Thanks a lot!
