Description: Perform mediation analysis in the presence of
        high-dimensional mediators based on the potential outcome
        framework. Bayesian Mediation Analysis (BAMA), developed by
        Song et al (2019) <doi:10.1111/biom.13189> and Song et al
        (2020) <arXiv:2009.11409>, relies on two Bayesian sparse linear
        mixed models to simultaneously analyze a relatively large
        number of mediators for a continuous exposure and outcome
        assuming a small number of mediators are truly active. This
        sparsity assumption also allows the extension of univariate
        mediator analysis by casting the identification of active
        mediators as a variable selection problem and applying Bayesian
        methods with continuous shrinkage priors on the effects.
