Background: Explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) emerged to improve the transparency of machine learning models and increase understanding of how models make actions and decisions. It helps to present complex models in a more digestible form from a human perspective. However, XAI is still in the development stage and must be used carefully in sensitive domains including paediatrics, where misuse might have adverse consequences.

Article Synopsis
  • Scientists studied a brain connection called LC-TEC in people with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and a type of dementia called frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD).
  • They used special MRI scans to look at the brain's structure and found that people with bvFTD had more serious changes in this pathway compared to those with AD and healthy people.
  • The results suggest that the changes in the LC-TEC pathway are linked to the loss of thickness in another brain area called the entorhinal cortex, especially in bvFTD patients.
