Maryland crossed with CFDA 93.837
CFDA 93.837 is titled CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASES RESEARCH. Crossed with Maryland place of performance, obligations sum to $830,640,382.26 on 400 awards. The national 93.837 hub includes other states. Maryland’s spending hub includes other programs. Only this intersection is reported here. $830,640,382.26 is an obligation aggregate from USAspending.gov, not an outlay and not a count of cath labs in Baltimore.
Four hundred awards is a multi-project extramural pattern: NHLBI assistance often posts as hundreds of discrete records rather than one statewide block. The join does not name recipients. Packet facts are $830,640,382.26, 400 awards, MD, and 93.837. Correlation is not causation. FEC donations do not fund this USAspending cell. Keep NHLBI cardiovascular research and Maryland together when reading $830,640,382.26.
93.837 is not NIDDK in Maryland
NIDDK (93.847) and NCI catalogs use different CFDA numbers. Mixing those series into $830,640,382.26 would invent a broader total than this cell contains. Facts available: Maryland, CFDA 93.837, $830,640,382.26, 400 awards. Study titles, activity codes, and publication counts are unpublished.
The catalog title names cardiovascular diseases research, not a ranking of academic medical centers. Dividing $830,640,382.26 by 400 yields about $2.08 million per award. Unique recipients are unpublished. 400 is not a lab or PI census.
Place of performance on the NHLBI tag
MD is the place-of-performance code. Awards billed to Baltimore, Bethesda, or other in-state sites can share the tag. Awards coded to Virginia, the District of Columbia, Pennsylvania, Delaware, or West Virginia stay outside $830,640,382.26 even when activity later crosses those lines. The code does not convert $830.64 million into a campus map.
Maryland federal spending is the all-program parent. 93.837 is one row on Maryland programs. $830.64 million is not the state’s complete federal footprint. Open Cardiovascular Diseases Research in Maryland for the filtered table, CFDA 93.837 for the catalog without a Maryland filter, and All spending ties for other pairs. Do not add those parents into $830,640,382.26.
Reading 400 awards under $830.64 million
$830,640,382.26 ÷ 400 is about $2.08 million per award. That average is an extramural-project scale, not a per-patient cost, not a median. Net obligations can include downward modifications; the total shown is the aggregate in the facts. Treat 400 as a record count, not as 400 finished trials.
Without a transaction register, you cannot see how many of the 400 rows are continuations, renewals, or corrections. Later ingests can restate $830,640,382.26 without changing the join key of 93.837 and MD. USAspending obligations can be positive new awards or net of downward modifications; $830,640,382.26 is the net total supplied in the facts. The pair remains NHLBI cardiovascular research plus Maryland. Do not treat $830,640,382.26 as an outlay series.
What the NHLBI–Maryland pair does not prove
A large 93.837 total tagged to Maryland does not measure whether heart-disease mortality fell, and it does not equal papers published. FEC donations do not fund this USAspending cell. Correlation is not causation. The headline remains $830,640,382.26 on 400 awards for NHLBI cardiovascular research in Maryland.
Keep both sides of the join: Cardiovascular Diseases Research and Maryland, obligations only. Do not annualize $830,640,382.26 without a year field—this packet publishes none. Do not treat 400 as a lab or PI census. Quote USAspending.gov and the overlay path rather than a clinical-outcomes story. Cite NHLBI cardiovascular research together with Maryland whenever you reuse $830,640,382.26.
Using the 93.837–Maryland overlay
The overlay target is the Maryland × CFDA 93.837 table. Open Cardiovascular Diseases Research in Maryland when you want the same $830,640,382.26 / 400-award cell in the site’s data chrome. CFDA 93.837 drops the Maryland filter. Maryland federal spending drops the CFDA filter. Maryland programs lists other catalogs beside 93.837. All spending ties indexes other pairs.
This page exists because two tables meet: a CFDA program and a place-of-performance state. It does not exist to argue that Maryland won or lost federal money, that donations paid for the awards, or that obligations equal cash. The pair is 93.837 plus MD. Obligations of $830,640,382.26 are not outlays. Original filings remain on USAspending.gov for this 93.837 × MD pair. 400 remains an award-record count, not a person, facility, or project census.
