PER CURIAM.

Federal inmate Jose Guevara-Sosa appeals the district court’s1

 adverse grant of

summary judgment in this civil rights action. Following careful de novo review, see

Appellate Case: 08-1478 Page: 1 Date Filed: 05/07/2010 Entry ID: 3662416
-2-

Popoalii v. Corr. Med. Servs., 512 F.3d 488, 499 (8th Cir. 2008) (summary judgment

standard of review), we agree with the district court that Guevara-Sosa offered no

evidence of a trial-worthy issue in response to defendants’ evidence that he received

adequate medical care for his chronic back problems, see Fed R. Civ. P. 56(e)(2)

(nonmoving party must set out specific facts showing genuine issue for trial); Estelle

v. Gamble, 429 U.S. 97, 104-07 (1976) (discussing medical deliberate-indifference

standard in prison context). Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. We also

deny Guevara-Sosa’s motion for appointment of counsel.
