Abstract: Mild cognitive impairment(MCI)has a high prevalence and may progress to dementia.MCI is considered a key stage in the prevention of dementia, but the number of early identification methods is limited.Fine motor function of the hand and cognitive function both decline with age.Therefore, analyzing the correlation between cognitive dysfunction and fine motor function of the hand and exploring whether fine motor dysfunction of the hand can be used as a sensitive screening method for MCI may have important significance for early detection of MCI.At the same time, electronic devices are increasingly used for the evaluation of hand function and may be a promising option to be used for the assessment of fine motor function of the hand in patients with MCI.
