mediation_OAI

####rand_int : implements the random interventional analogue to direct and indirect natural effects
####ipw_med : implements calculations of controlled direct effect with IPTW, optionally setting M to different values or distributions.
####med_reg : implements regression-based calculation of CDE, NDE, and NIE

Everything assumes

  1. No X -> Y unmeasured confounder
  2. No M -> Y unmeasured confounder

Addtionally
3. med_reg assumes no exposure-induced M -> Y confounder
4. NDE and their randomized analogue assume no X -> M confounder
