Core Tip	Locomotive syndrome (LS), a criterion capable of evaluating physical function at an earlier stage, has been less studied in relation to mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Clarifying the correlation between LS status and MCI in geriatric cancer patients may aid in identifying early risks for cognitive and motor impairments, providing new insights into maintaining patient independence. Therefore, this study aimed to explore influencing factors and correlations between MCI and LS in geriatric cancer patients. Identifying these factors may facilitate targeted interventions, thus improving overall health status and prognosis among geriatric cancer patients.
