Graphic of clinical course in Crohn’s disease. Solberg et al presented 4 graphic clinical courses of Crohn’s disease: curve 1 (decrease in the severity of bowel symptoms), curve 2 (increase in the severity of bowel symptoms), curve 3 (chronic continuous bowel symptoms), and curve 4 (chronic relapsing bowel symptoms). Reprinted with permission from Solberg et al. A relapse-free course was attained in nearly a half of Crohn’s disease patients with infliximab and plant-based diet as first-line therapy.
