Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for sleep apnea as secondary to PTSD and denied service connection for a liver condition.
The deciding factor: Service connection for sleep apnea was granted due to aggravation by the Veteran's service-connected PTSD, while evidence did not support a link between the liver condition and active service or toxic exposure.
