Denied
The Board denied service connection for a right arm condition, cervical spine disability, and right shoulder disability as they are not shown to be related to the Veteran's service or secondary to his service-connected lumbar spine disability.
The deciding factor: The evidence does not support a nexus between the claimed disabilities and either in-service events or the service-connected lumbar spine disability.
