Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for tinnitus but denied service connection for bilateral hearing loss, a headache disorder, a respiratory disorder, a skin disorder, and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
The deciding factor: Tinnitus was granted based on continuous symptoms since service. The other conditions were denied due to lack of evidence supporting a current diagnosis or a nexus to service.
