Denied
The Board denied an earlier effective date for the grant of service connection for chronic gastritis and a compensable rating for chronic gastritis.
The deciding factor: The persuasive weight of the evidence indicates that the Veteran's chronic gastritis was not characterized as hypertrophic and was not manifested by nodular lesions or ulcers, thus denying entitlement to an earlier effective date and a compensable rating.
