Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for an acquired psychiatric disorder, including an adjustment disorder with anxiety, but denied and remanded the claims for a back condition.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's acquired psychiatric disorder had its onset during active-duty service, while there was no new and relevant evidence to support readjudicating the claim for a back condition.
