medScanA collection of methods for large scale single mediator hypothesis testing. The six included methods for testing the mediation effect are Sobel’s test, Max P test, joint significance test under the composite null hypothesis, high dimensional mediation testing, divide-aggregate composite null test, and Sobel’s test under the composite null hypothesis. Du, Jiacong, et al. “Methods for large‐scale single mediator hypothesis testing: Possible choices and comparisons.” Genetic Epidemiology 47.2 (2023): 167-184.
