Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claims for increased ratings and remanded a claim for service connection for erectile dysfunction.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support the criteria for higher ratings, as the Veteran's symptoms did not meet the specific requirements for a compensable evaluation under the applicable diagnostic codes.
