About this trial

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of supplementing Bacillus subtilis compared to the control group on the efficacy of Infliximab in patients with Crohn's disease, and to summarize the role of supplementing Bacillus subtilis in the treatment of CD patients.

Participants will be randomized into two groups: the Bacillus subtilis supplementation group and the control group. The patients in the Bacillus subtilis supplementation group received oral Bacillus subtilis capsules for 12 weeks. The control group did not receive additional intervention. Follow up once a week, and after the study, patients will come to the hospital to finish the evaluation indicators.
