Denied
The Board denied service connection for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) because there is no current diagnosis of OSA.
The deciding factor: The Veteran does not have a current diagnosis of OSA, and the evidence persuasively weighs against finding that he was diagnosed with sleep apnea at any time during or approximate to the pendency of the claim.
