income. For reversal, Miller contends that the ALJ (1) did not give sufficient weight
to the cognitive problems caused by his diabetes and joint pain; (2) erred in not
according controlling weight to his treating physician’s assessment; (3) did not accord
sufficient weight to the effects of his musculoskeletal impairments; and (4) erred in
determining he could perform unskilled light work. Following careful review of the
parties’ submissions and the record before us, we conclude that the ALJ’s
determinations are supported by substantial evidence on the record as a whole, and
that Miller’s arguments do not support reversal. See Andrews v. Colvin,
791 F.3d
923, 928 (8th Cir. 2015). Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s judgment. See
8th Cir. R. 47B.
