Denied
The Board denied service connection for multiple conditions, including carpal tunnel syndrome, knee and elbow conditions, an acquired psychiatric disorder, and foot conditions.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not persuasively weigh in favor of a finding that the Veteran's claimed conditions began during active service or are otherwise related to an in-service injury or disease.
