Denied
The Board denied service connection for sinusitis due to the lack of a current diagnosis during the appeal period. The claim for right shoulder condition was remanded for further development.
The deciding factor: The absence of objective evidence demonstrating a current, chronic disability led to the denial of the claim for sinusitis. For the right shoulder condition, an inadequate medical opinion necessitated a remand.
