35032 the straining at stool on eligible service, which resulted in increased intra-abdominal pressure within the three days before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration, was due to the veteran's serious default, wilful act or serious breach of discipline.

or

35035 as a result of an illness or injury that is identifiable, the veteran had straining at stool which caused increased intra-abdominal pressure.

35037 as a consequence of the identified illness or injury, the veteran experienced straining at stool which resulted in increased intra-abdominal pressure within the three days before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration.

35041  the identified illness or injury, that caused the straining at stool resulting in increased intra-abdominal pressure, is causally related to eligible service.

35033 the straining at stool on operational service, which resulted in increased intra-abdominal pressure within the thirty days before the clinical worsening of the condition under consideration, was due to the veteran's serious default, wilful act or serious breach of discipline.

or

35035 as a result of an illness or injury that is identifiable, the veteran had straining at stool which caused increased intra-abdominal pressure.

35038 as a consequence of the identified illness or injury, the veteran experienced straining at stool which resulted in increased intra-abdominal pressure within the thirty days before the clinical worsening of the condition under consideration.

35040  the identified illness or injury, that caused the straining at stool resulting in increased intra-abdominal pressure, is causally related to operational service.

35042 the clinical onset of the condition under consideration occurred prior to that part of operational service to which the identified illness or injury, which caused the straining at stool resulting in increased intra-abdominal pressure, is causally related.
