Interesting heads up for anyone needing surgery

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.
