Figure 5 Correlation of the relative abundance of Bacteroidetes and Proteobacteria with Crohn’s disease activity index scores (A). Bacteroidetes (r = -0.538, P = 0.039); Proteobacteria (r = 0.250, P = 0.369); B: Microbial composition of Bacteroidetes in patients with inactive/mild/moderate CD and in control; C: Microbial composition of Proteobacteria in patients with inactive/mild/moderate CD and in controls. ^aP < 0.05 vs control; ^cP < 0.05 vs CD.mild; ^eP < 0.05 vs CD.moderate. CDAI: CD activity index; CD.I: Inactive CD; CD.mild: Mild CD; CD.moderate: Moderate CD.
