The Board denied the veteran's claims for increased ratings for asthma and unspecified anxiety disorder, finding that the evidence did not support a higher rating.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's asthma symptoms were found to be more closely aligned with a 30 percent disability rating, while his unspecified anxiety disorder caused occupational and social impairment with occasional decrease in work efficiency and intermittent periods of inability to perform occupational tasks, which does not warrant a higher rating.
