Partly granted
The Board denied an increased rating for allergic rhinitis but granted service connection for sinusitis as secondary to the Veteran's service-connected allergic rhinitis.
The deciding factor: The evidence of record persuasively weighs against a rating in excess of 30 percent for allergic rhinitis, while it supports that recurrent, chronic sinusitis is due to her service-connected condition.
