Research direction

Open the linked MIMIC-IV admissions documentation and navigate to the section covering insurance, language, marital_status, and ethnicity. Compare the ethnicity entry with the data and the other documentation references; it is done when the incorrect field name is corrected to race.

Description

Hi, just want to quickly share a very minor typo: the ethnicity field in the documentation for MIMIC-IV's admissions table should be race as is in the data and correctly noted elsewhere. Thank you!
