| The above assertions of respondent do not constitute as substantial evidence that a reasonable mind might accept as adequate to support the conclusion that there is a causal relationship between his illness and the working conditions on board the petitioners' vessel. Although the Court has recognized as sufficient that work conditions are proven to have contributed even to a small degree,[28] such must, however, be reasonable, and anchored on credible information.[29] The claimant must, therefore, prove a convincing proposition other than by his mere allegations.[30] This he failed to do. | |||||
