    Incarcerated inguinal hernias are common surgical emergencies characterized by irreducible hernia contents and can lead to serious complications.

  • 2

    Risk factors for progression to strangulation include age, comorbidities, prior abdominal surgeries, and chronic smoking.

  • 3

    Older patients often experience delayed pain sensitivity, increasing the risk of intestinal ischemia and complications during emergency surgery.

  • 4

    Statistically significant indicators for strangulation include inguinal tenderness, intestinal obstruction, CRP, and neutrophil count.

  • 5

    A predictive model was developed using a nomogram based on clinical and laboratory data to aid in assessing strangulation risk.
