Partly granted
The Board denied service connection for chronic sinusitis and remanded the claim for further development regarding chronic rhinitis.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a finding of a current disability of chronic sinusitis, while the claim for chronic rhinitis required additional medical examination to determine its etiology.
