Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claim for service connection for chronic rhinitis, finding no evidence of a relationship between his toxic exposures and the condition.
The deciding factor: The December 2024 negative nexus opinion was found competent, credible, and of significant probative weight because it reviewed the claims file and considered pertinent medical treatise evidence as related to the specific facts of the Veteran's claim.
