Denied
The Board denied service connection for diabetes, finding no medical evidence supporting a link between the Veteran's diabetes and his service-connected lumbar spine strain with IVDS.
The deciding factor: The persuasive weight of the probative evidence of record is against a medical nexus between the Veteran's diabetes and his service-connected lumbar spine strain with IVDS.
