Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for a right shoulder disability, skin condition (tinea pedis), and lumbar spine disability but denied it for a dental condition.
The deciding factor: The evidence submitted since the August 2022 rating decision was found to be new and relevant, establishing a nexus between the Veteran's current disabilities and his service.
