The Veteran's claims for various conditions, including right shoulder disorder, neck disorder, hearing loss, rosacea, autoimmune hepatitis, hepatic steatosis, residuals of liver transplant, surgical scar, and hepatic encephalitis were all denied as they are not service-connected.

The deciding factor: The medical evidence did not support a link between the Veteran's current conditions and his military service or exposure to contaminated water at Camp Lejeune.
