The Board denied the veteran's claims for service connection for dyshydrotic eczema, elevated SGPT (serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase), and short-term memory loss. The veteran was also denied increased ratings for hypertension and torn right ACL.
The deciding factor: There is no competent medical evidence of current existence or a relationship to service for the claimed conditions.
