RESUMEN
Susceptibility to 15 antibiotics was determined in 1548 non-typhoidal salmonella strains isolated in Greece from l990 to l997. The overall prevalence of resistance of both Salmonella enterica serotype Enteritidis and Salmonella enterica serotype Typhimurium increased during the first years of the study. A decrease was observed from 1996, especially for S. Enteritidis, which showed the highest overall antibiotic resistance. S. Typhimurium was the serotype with the highest multiresistance to antibiotics. The rest of the serotypes had very low resistance prevalence compared with both S. Enteritidis and Typhimurium serotypes.

The susceptibility patterns of 1027 nontyphoidal Salmonella strains of human origin, isolated in Greece between 1990 and 1997, were determined by broth microdilution. From 1990 to 1995, the overall incindence of resistance for both Salmonella enteritidis and S. typhimurium increased. From 1996 onwards, a decrease was observed, which was more evident for S. enteritidis. Regarding the other examined serotypes a substantial proportion of resistant isolates was found only for S. Virhow and S.

Greece is member of the European Economic Community since 1981. This paper analyses the existing relationships between mortality rates and several indices of socio-economic development; these indices deal with the rythm of industrial development, the level of urbanization, the quality and quantity of individual consumption. These indices show marked differences within EEC. Among the factors studied, those related to nutrition show strong association with cancer and coronary mortality; the level of urbanization is associated with mortality from cardiovascular and acute respiratory causes. The employment and the BIP are directly associated with mortality from accident, intoxication and respiratory diseases.
