Sodium-ion batteries are promising next-generation electrical-energy-storage devices due to the relative low cost, and the natural abundance of sodium resources. Yet developmental anodes in sodium-ion batteries such as carbonaceous materials have adagio sodium ion diffusion kinetics, huge volume expansion, poor rate performance and cycle stability. Herein, we report a high-performance sodium ion storage anode material, i.e., a unique nanonetwork-structured carbon (NNSC) with a valuable hollow nanosphere as network unit by developing a facile, efficient and post-treatment-free strategy. The as-constructed NNSC exhibits a three-dimensional interconnected hierarchical porous network and a luxuriant accessible surface area, which greatly enhance sodium ion transport and storage. Thus, the obtained NNSC demonstrates excellent sodium ion storage performance, including a high capacity of 250 mA h g, good rate capability, and ultra-long-term cycle life up to 9000 cycles. Such attractive capabilities could accelerate the application of sodium-ion batteries in large-scale energy storage.

Fluoride (F), as a natural element found in a wide range of sources such as water and certain foods, has been proven to be beneficial in preventing dental caries, but concerns have been raised regarding its potential deleterious effects on overall health. Sodium fluoride (NaF), another form of F, has the ability to accumulate in reproductive organs and interfere with hormonal regulation and oxidative stress pathways, contributing to reproductive toxicity. While the exact mechanisms of F-induced reproductive toxicity are not fully understood, this review aims to elucidate the mechanisms involved in testicular and ovarian injury.

Molybdenum disulfide (MoS) is a promising anode for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) due to its high theoretical capacity and layered structure. However, a poor reversible conversion reaction and a low initial Coulombic efficiency (ICE) limit its practical application. This study systematically investigated the potential of pre-intercalated sodium ions molybdenum disulfide (Na-MoS) as an anode material for SIBs.

The interaction of sodium phytate hydrate CHOP·xNa·yHO (phytNa) with Cu(OAc)·HO and 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) led to the anionic tetranuclear complex [Cu(HO)(phen)(phyt)]·2Na·2NH·32HO (), the structure of the latter was determined by X-ray diffraction analysis. The phytate is completely deprotonated; six phosphate fragments (with atoms P1-P6) are characterized by different spatial arrangements relative to the cyclohexane ring (1a5e conformation), which determines two different types of coordination to the complexing agents-P1 and P3, P4, and P6 have monodentate, while P2 and P5 are bidentately bound to Cu cations. The molecular structure of the anion complex is stabilized by a set of strong intramolecular hydrogen bonds involving coordinated water molecules.

Several mutations of the uppermost arginine, R219, in the voltage-sensing sliding helix S4 of cardiac sodium channel Nav1.5 are reported in the ClinVar databases, but the clinical significance of the respective variants is unknown (VUSs). AlphaFold 3 models predicted a significant downshift of S4 in the R219C VUS.
