TLDR

The most comprehensive analysis of what happens to patients who have surgery on Fridays versus Mondays, published this month in JAMA by more than a dozen US and Canadian researchers, is unequivocal: The people who underwent all kinds of procedures before the weekend suffered on average more short-term, medium-term, and long-term complications than people who went under the knife after the weekend was over.

Reminds me a bit of a study that showed judges were more likely to deny parole (or rule harshly) before lunch, and became more lenient after eating.
