Partly granted
The Board denied higher ratings for migraines, lumbosacral strain, and left knee strain with tendonitis, but granted a 10 percent rating for atopic dermatitis of the left lower chest. The claim for service connection for sinusitis was also denied.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's symptoms did not meet or nearly approximate the criteria for higher ratings under applicable diagnostic codes.
