Denied
The Board denied service connection for a kidney disability and hypertension, as the evidence did not support a finding that these conditions were related to service or caused by any service-connected disabilities.
The deciding factor: The VA examiners found no evidence indicating that the Veteran's chronic kidney disease and hypertension were incurred in or related to service, and there was no medical evidence supporting that they were caused or aggravated by his service-connected conditions.
