Mediation Analysis with the Mediator and Outcome Missing Not at Random
Mediation analysis is widely used for investigating direct and indirect causal pathways through which an effect arises. However, many mediation analysis studies are challenged by missingness in the mediator and outcome. In general, when the mediator and outcome are missing not at random, the direct and indirect effects are not identifiable without ...

Group testing in mediation analysis
We consider the scenario where there is an exposure, multiple biologically defined sets of biomarkers, and an outcome. We propose a new two‐step procedure that tests if any of the sets of biomarkers mediate the exposure/outcome relationship, while maintaining a prespecified familywise error rate.

Mediated Encryption: Analysis and Design [PDF]
Boneh, Ding and Tsudik presented identity-based mediated RSA encryption and signature systems in which the users are not allowed to decrypt/sign messages without the authorisation of a security mediator.We show that ID-MRSA is not secure and we present a secure modified version of it which is as efficient as the original system.
