Appeal from United States District Court
for the Western District of Arkansas - Texarkana

Before LOKEN, BOWMAN, and KELLY, Circuit Judges.
____________
PER CURIAM.
Tamiko Nelson appeals the judgment of the district court1 affirming the
Commissioner’s denial of disability insurance benefits and supplemental security
income, after her hearing before an administrative law judge (ALJ). On appeal,
Nelson argues that the ALJ did not properly assess the combination of her
impairments, the ALJ’s residual functional capacity determination was not supported
by substantial evidence, and the ALJ’s hypothetical to the vocational expert was
improper. Following careful review, we conclude that the decision is supported by
substantial evidence on the record as a whole, and that Nelson’s arguments do not
establish a basis for remand or warrant reversal. See Myers v. Colvin,
721 F.3d 521,
524 (8th Cir. 2013) (standard of review); Davidson v. Astrue,
501 F.3d 987, 989 (8th
Cir. 2007) (“Substantial evidence is less than a preponderance, but enough evidence
that a reasonable mind would find adequate to support the Commissioner’s
decision.”).
Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s judgment. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
