ABSTRACT

Background: The composition of the intestinal microbiota is altered in Crohn's disease (CD)

patients. The objective of this study was to evaluate the qualitative and quantitative changes in the microbiota of CD patients in three months of treatment with adalimumab (ADA), and determine whether or not these changes are produced towards the recovery of the normal,

Methods: The microbiota composition and the Faecalibacterium prausnitzii / Escherichia coli quantitative relationship as dysbiosis indicator, were studied at baseline (T0), one month (T1)
