[R] prevalence ratio and confidence intervals

[Roberta Pereira Niquini]

Hi everybody,

I would like to estimate prevalence ratio and confidence intervals. 

I tried to do a log-binomial regression, but there was a failure of 
convergence.
Now, I would like to learn how to do a poisson regression with robust 
variance.
I am trying to estimate coefficients with poisson regression and then get 
standard errors that are adjusted for heteroskedasticity. 

glm22<- svyglm(y~x1+x2+x3+offset(log(x4)), data = banco,  family = poisson, 
design= design_tarv)

# Y has a binomial distribution (0/1)
# X1, X2, X3 e X4 are categorical variables.
#I am using the library(survey) because it is an analysis of Complex Sample 
Survey Data .

summary(glm22)

Call:
svyglm(y~x1+x2+x3+ offset(log(x4)),data = banco, family = poisson, design = 
design_tarv)

Survey design:
svydesign(ids = ~conglomerado, strata = ~estrato, data = banco, 
    weights = ~peso)

I think these standards errors are very small. 

Is this the correct form to do poisson regression with robust variance?

Thank you for the help, 
Roberta.
