Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Ana Paula Maia Pires"
- Ana Paula Maia Pires focuses on the microbiology and treatment outcomes of diabetic foot infections (DFIs), highlighting the importance of empirical antibiotic therapy for hospitalized diabetic patients, with findings based on a retrospective study involving 320 patients.
- In another study, Pires compares the WIfI classification and the angiosome concept in evaluating limb salvage and wound healing rates in patients undergoing endovascular treatment for critical limb ischemia (CLI), establishing a new paradigm for infrapopliteal angioplasties based on retrospective cohort analysis.
- Pires also investigates the long-term outcomes of endovascular treatment for femoropopliteal occlusive disease, emphasizing the role of calcification and infrapopliteal outflow in determining limb salvage and patency rates, based on a study of 86 consecutive patients.
