Granted
The Board granted a rating of 40 percent for diabetes mellitus type 2, as the Veteran's condition required one or more daily insulin injections and regulation of activities.
The deciding factor: The evidence showed that the Veteran's diabetes mellitus, type 2, met the criteria for a 40 percent rating under DC 7913, but not for a higher rating.
