Variation in binary outcomes over time by cluster size arises across various biomedical disciplines, including reproductive health, dental medicine, and psychiatric epidemiology. This study formally integrates modified Poisson regression with cluster-weighted generalized estimating equations (MP-CWGEE) for computing risk ratios in longitudinal studies with informative cluster sizes. Using a comprehensive Monte-Carlo simulation study, we empirically evaluated MP-CWGEEs statistical properties agai...
