Partly granted
The Board granted an initial 10 percent rating for sinusitis, but denied a compensable rating for allergic rhinitis.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's sinusitis symptoms were found to be consistent with the criteria for a 10 percent rating, while his allergic rhinitis did not meet the criteria for a compensable evaluation under DC 6522.
