工作日要上班，而周末医院更难挂号，有些检查也做不了，你是不是也为此纠结过？  Research from UCL shows that people who are admitted to hospitals at the weekend fair less well than those who arrive during the week.
伦敦大学学院的研究发现，与工作日入院的患者相比，周末入院接受治疗的患者更不容易康复。
In healthcare, the weekend effect is the finding of a difference in mortality rate for patients admitted to hospital for treatment at the weekend compared to those admitted on a weekday.
在医疗领域，人们发现周末入院接受治疗的患者死亡率与工作日入院的患者死亡率之间有所差别，这被称为“周末效应”。
At least some of the previous explanations from researchers for the “weekend effect” are related to lower staffing levels (nurses), fewer available specialists, as well as lack of readily available imaging and so-called interventional-type services offered during a typical “work” day from 9-5.
至少从之前研究人员给出的一些解释来看，“周末效应”与医院医护人员人手更少、专家人数更少、一些影像检查及介入性治疗无法立即进行有关，而这些医疗资源在工作日时间均可尽快获得。
It turns out that the increased risk of death after being admitted to hospital over the weekend–coined the “weekend effect”–is actually seen in many developed countries’ hospital systems, including the UK, US and Australia, as well as the Netherlands.
调查显示，周末入院更难治愈的这一“周末效应”其实在很多发达国家的医疗系统里都很常见，包括英国、美国、澳大利亚以及荷兰等国。
