The claim for service connection for dysplasia, abnormal pap smear, and HPV was not reopened due to lack of new and material evidence. The claim for service connection for shin splints/tendonitis was reopened based on new and material evidence.
The deciding factor: New and material evidence has been received to reopen the claim for service connection for shin splints/tendonitis but not for dysplasia, abnormal pap smear, and HPV.
