Research direction

Start with the Windows installation instructions at the linked MIMIC documentation and inspect postgres/postgres_load_data_7zip.sql, especially line 31. Reproduce the integrated PSQL Tool command involving ADMISSIONS.csv.gz and the 7z error. Done means identifying why the import fails on Windows and documenting or correcting the supported import path.
