Are there any human randomised control trials that show stuff like vegetable oil cause inflammation? Atleast the ones I've seen show the opposite

No, such human rcts haven't been done.

The mechanism for how refined linoleic acid if heated would create higher amounts of free radicals that are known to cause oxidative stress / inflammation is well understood.

I agree a large scale rct for this would be great, but I doubt anyone would fund it and if it does get done I'd be surprised if it wasn't designed to meet the biases of the side that funds it.
