Brain protection by rapeseed oil in magnesium-deficient mice.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Diets given for 30 days with various mono-(MUFA) and poly-(PUFA) unsaturated fatty acid contents were evaluated for brain protection in magnesium-deficient mice: a commercial and three synthetic diets (n-6PUFA, n-3PUFA and MUFA-based chows enriched with 5% corn/sunflower oils 1:3, with 5% rapeseed oil and with 5% high oleic acid sunflower oil/sunflower oil 7:3, respectively). Unlike magnesium deprivation, they induced significant differences in brain and erythrocyte membrane phospholipid fatty acid compositions. n-3PUFA but not other diets protected magnesium-deficient mice against hyperactivity and moderately towards maximal electroshock- and NMDA-induced seizures. This diet also inhibited audiogenic seizures by 50%, preventing animal deaths. Because, like n-6PUFA diet, matched control MUFA diet failed to induce brain protections, alpha-linolenate (ALA) rather than reduced n-6 PUFA diet content is concluded to cause n-3PUFA neuroprotection. Present in vivo data also corroborate literature in vitro inhibition of T type calcium channels by n-3 PUFA, adding basis to ALA supplementation in human anti-epileptic/neuroprotective strategies.
