Denied
The Board denied service connection for the veteran's obstructive sleep apnea, finding that it was not related to service or caused by a service-connected disability.
The deciding factor: The evidence of record persuasively weighs against finding that the Veteran's sleep apnea is related to service or is due to or the result of, or aggravated beyond its natural progression by, service-connected disability.
