The second stage : for 6 weeks, patients can choose more food types, with 25 % PEN treatment
The third stage : maintain the remission stage for nine months. The patients were freely matched according to the core principles of CDED diet and treated with 25 % PEN. The fourth stage : stop PEN tr

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Disease remission rate and response rate in the 6th week of treatment;

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
PCDAI scores were evaluated at baseline and at 6 and 12 weeks after enrollment, and simplified CD endoscopic score (SES-CD) was evaluated at baseline and 12 weeks after treatment;Inflammatory markers were measured at baseline and 6 and 12 weeks after enrollment : blood routine, CRP, ESR, blood biochemistry, fecal calprotectin, blood inflammatory factors TNF-a, IL-6 / IL-10, IL-1ß, IL-17A, IFN-?;Application of nutritional risk screening and nutritional status assessment at baseline and 3, 6, 9, and 12 weeks after enrollment;Growth and development indicators : height, weight, body mass index were measured at baseline and at 3 weeks, 6 weeks, 9 week, and 12 weeks after enrollment.;Nutritional indicators were measured at baseline and at weeks 6 and 12 after enrollment, including serum albumin, serum prealbumin, lymphocyte count, hemoglobin, serum ferritin, total ferritin binding rate, trace elements (zinc), folate, vitamin B12, and 25 hydroxyvitamin D;Bone metabolic markers : serum 25 ( OH ) D3, serum calcium, serum phosphorus, bone alkaline phosphatase, bone mineral density were measured at baseline and at 6 and 12 weeks after enrollment;Clinical tolerability and compliance: evaluated at 3, 6, 9, and 12 weeks after enrollment;Detection of intestinal flora diversity : Fresh fecal samples of patients were collected at the time of enrollment, 6 weeks and 12 weeks after treatment, and the changes of intestinal flora in children at different stages of diet treatment were obtained by metagenomic sequencing;Detection of small molecule metabolites : Fecal and serum samples were collected at the time of enrollment, 6 weeks and 12 weeks after treatment;
