Granted
The Board granted service connection for obstructive sleep apnea, finding it at least as likely as not that the condition is due to or aggravated by the Veteran's service-connected asthma and/or lower back disability.
The deciding factor: The Board found that reasonable doubt should be resolved in favor of the Veteran, given the evidence supporting a causal relationship between his service-connected disabilities and obstructive sleep apnea.
