Abstract: This study of the Jabiru oil field, Timor Sea (Australia), shows how the variability of visual properties of fluid inclusions in palaeo-oil zones can be mapped to identify internal structures that result from fluid interactions in the reservoir. Variability in the attributes of oil inclusion assemblages (OIAs) is greater within an inferred palaeo-gas cap (Zone 1) and current residual zone (Zone 3) and less within the current oil zone (Zone 2). In Zone 3, where water imbibed, a higher proportion of OIAs with visual white fluorescing oil inclusions correlates with less mono-aromatic compounds and a higher abundance of polar compounds determined on a bulk extract of inclusion oil using High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). The CH2/CH3 ratios and water contents, determined by Fourier Transform-Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR), are higher. In Zone 1, where gas drained, there is a higher proportion of OIAs with visual yellow fluorescing oil inclusions, and these correlate with low HPLC mono-aromatic and moderate polar contents, and low FT-IR CH2/CH3 ratios and water contents. Interpretation of the grains with oil inclusions (GOI™) and pressure–volume–temperature-composition (PVTx) fluid inclusion data suggests that a gas-saturated blue fluorescing palaeo-oil was present in the three zones at the same Pressure–Temperature fluid inclusion forming event PT 1. Lighter gas-saturated blue fluorescing oil was present in Zone 2, but was rarer in Zones 1 and 3 at the later fluid inclusion forming event PT 2. The yellow and white inclusion oils, trapped in Zones 1 and 3 respectively, are gas-depleted and interpreted to result from the interaction between non-movable residual oil around grains with the surrounding gas and water, respectively. Comparison between the PVTx data and the published burial curve suggests that most of the fluid inclusions were trapped during two different hot fluid flow events. The full oil column is interpreted to have been present during Early–Mid Tertiary. The palaeo-oil column was reduced during the Late Miocene by imbibition of water in the present residual zone and drainage of gas at the top of the reservoir. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

Objective: This review will systematically examine the qualitative literature reporting on strategies that have been used (or could be developed) by health care services to integrate pharmacists into a multidisciplinary health care team., Introduction: Delivery models of pharmaceutical care have been developed, trialed and refined since this concept was first defined more than 30 years ago. Delivery models that integrate pharmacists within a multidisciplinary team allow pharmacists to play a pivotal role in improving health outcomes for patients and contributing to patient self-management. Systematic reviews clearly demonstrate the effectiveness of these models; however, the attitudes, beliefs, expectations, understandings, perceptions and experiences of these multidisciplinary teams is less clear., Inclusion Criteria: The populations of interest in this review are health care providers, including hospital specialists, general practitioners, nurses, health workers, pharmacists, allied health workers, aged care workers, Indigenous health workers and health promotion workers. The phenomena of interest are attitudes, beliefs, expectations, understandings, perceptions and experiences of the populations of interest arising from experiencing, developing or implementing strategies that have or could support the integration of pharmacists into multidisciplinary health care teams., Methods: The databases to be searched include PubMed, Cochrane, EBSCO (CINAHL), Embase, MedNar, Trove and Australian Indigenous Health Infonet. Studies published from 2011 onwards and in English will be considered for inclusion. Selected studies will be assessed for methodological quality by two independent reviewers, using standardized critical appraisal instruments. Where possible, qualitative research findings will be pooled. Where textual pooling is not possible, the findings will be presented in narrative form.

CASE HISTORY Thirteen cats developed ophthalmic complications following dental procedures in Australia and New Zealand between December 2014 and February 2018. All cats had at least one maxillary tooth extracted and some received a transoral maxillary nerve block. CLINICAL FINDINGS Ocular signs were identified at a median of 1.5 (min 0, max 14) days following elective dental procedures and included fibrin in the anterior chamber, aqueous flare, vision loss and miosis. Response to medical management was poor overall, with 7/13 (54%) cats undergoing subsequent enucleation and one cat was subjected to euthanasia shortly after the dental procedure due to ocular disease. The remaining five cats were managed medically. Of these, four exhibited signs of persistent inflammation at the last ophthalmic assessment, and one was subsequently subjected to euthanasia due to reasons unrelated to ocular health. Active inflammation resolved in one cat, however the lesions caused by previous inflammation persisted. PATHOLOGICAL FINDINGS Assessment of six enucleated globes showed a variety of pathological changes, with marked fibrinous exudation and suppurative inflammation as predominant features. A scleral penetration site was identified in three globes. Four globes had lens capsule rupture and phacoclastic uveitis. DIAGNOSIS Endophthalmitis following iatrogenic globe penetration during routine dental procedures. CLINICAL RELEVANCE This case series demonstrates that globe penetration during dental procedures carries a poor prognosis for the eye. Clinicians should be aware of the risks of ocular trauma during dental procedures in cats and great care should be taken to avoid ocular penetration, particularly during tooth extractions. Transoral maxillary nerve blocks should be avoided or used with extreme caution in cats.
