Atrial fibrillation(AF)is the most common cardiac arrhythmia.Many medical conditions,including hypertension,diabetes,obesity,sleep apnea,and heart failure(HF),increase the risk for AF.Car-diomyocytes have unique metabolic characteristics to maintain adenosine triphosphate production.Significant changes occur in myocardial metabolism in AF.Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists(GLP-1 RAs)have been used to control blood glucose fluctuations and weight in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)and obesity.GLP-1 RAs have also been shown to reduce oxidative stress,inflammation,autonomic nervous system modulation,and mitochondrial function.This article reviews the changes in metabolic characteristics in cardiomyocytes in AF.Although the clinical trial outcomes are unsatisfactory,the findings demonstrate that GLP-1 RAs can improve myocardial metabolism in the presence of various risk factors,lowering the incidence of AF.

kidney deficiency and blood stasis are believed to be the key pathogenesis of recurrent implantation failure （RIF）， and therefore， it is proposed to take kidney-supplementing and blood-invigorating as the basic treatment method， and use it by stages to assist the controlled superovulation program of in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer （IVF-ET）. The focus should be put on nourishing kidney yin， soothing the liver and invigorating blood during down-regulation period， using kidney yin-nourishing medicinals and modified Qinghao Biejia Decoction （青蒿鳖甲汤）. During the ovulation induction period， the focus should be put on nourishing kidney yang， replenishing blood， and promoting blood circulation， with self-made Bushen Culuan Formula （补肾促卵方） in modifications. After transplantation， it is suggested to put focus on tonifying the kidneys and replenishing essence， and self-made Wuzi Yanzong Guchong Decoction （五子衍宗固冲汤） in modifications can be used. At the same time， fetal protection treatment should be carried out for pregnant women， and modified Shou Tai Pill （寿胎丸） can be used to tonify the kidneys and calm the fetus.
