Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for an initial compensable rating for unspecified cough as new and relevant evidence had not been received to readjudicate the claim.
The deciding factor: The evidence submitted since the last decision did not tend to prove or disprove a matter at issue in this claim, thus it was not considered relevant under the AMA standards.
