"For every bit of &amp;quot;wow&amp;quot; health research out there, there&amp;#x27;s an equal bit that makes you go &amp;quot;well... huh.&amp;quot; (I think maybe the Mexican beer dermatitis news from a few days ago goes in that category, too, no?) Here are just a few of the other &amp;quot;who knew?&amp;quot; health-related items that happened this week.* Surgery mixups are apparently more common than you&amp;#x27;d expect. A study in the Archives of Surgery reports that in Colorado over a period of 6.5 years, doctors operated on the wrong patient at least 25 times and on the wrong body part on 107 patients. Wow. Just wow. * Fit women sweat differently than fit men. Fit men sweat more than anyone, and fit women happen to use the same sweat glands as fit men--they just produce less sweat. Which means, basically, that women have a harder time cooling down. * Just in case you were planning on wearing a meat dress for Halloween, a la Gaga, don&amp;#x27;t. It&amp;#x27;d be expensive and you&amp;#x27;d spread gross bacteria all over the place. Um, good to know. * This won&amp;#x27;t come as major news to anyone who has a passionate Wii player in her life, but... a new study by the American Academy of Pediatrics found that one in five video game-related injuries were to bystanders. * Twelve tons of frozen veggies were recalled because customers found glass shards in the bags. No one was injured, though. And I will now always inspect the ice crystals in my frozen foods and hope they&amp;#x27;re not glass shards, because that would totally be my luck. Any reactions to these newsbits? Have you heard any weird/interesting/&amp;amp;#8221;wow&amp;amp;#8221; health news lately?
