Key legal question
Whether the new disability application showed a significant change in health justifying a pension under the analogy to Art. 17 LPGA.
Extracted holding
The medical record did not establish any relevant aggravation of the insured's condition affecting earning capacity.
Extracted reasoning
The reports did not confirm a deterioration of the knee condition, the new diagnoses did not show incapacity or functional limitations, and the alleged hernia disc was not objectively shown to be disabling.
