Denied
The Board denied service connection for hypertension as it is not etiologically related to the Veteran's active service.
The deciding factor: The evidence does not show a relationship or nexus between the Veteran's current hypertension and her active-duty service, including any in-service exposure or onset of symptoms within one year of separation.
