A seventy-nine-yeаr-оld wоmаn cоmes for аn older adult annual visit. She lives independently and manages her own basic activities of daily living. You perform a focused examination and note the following: Blood pressure: 138/72 millimeters of mercury, pulse seventy-eight beats per minute, regular Lungs: clear to auscultation bilaterally Heart: soft grade II systolic murmur at the right upper sternal border without radiation, no diastolic murmurs Musculoskeletal: mild thoracic kyphosis and loss of two inches of height compared with her records from age fifty Neurologic: slightly decreased vibration sense in the toes but intact proprioception, strength, and gait; no focal deficits Which finding is most consistent with expected age-related change and does not require immediate diagnostic workup in an otherwise stable older adult?
