A respected British medical journal, The Lancet, published a study which estimated the number of "excess deaths" in Iraq resulting from the war to range from 8,000 to 194,000, with 95 percent confidence that the actual death toll was at least 98,000.

If you want to learn more, you can see this Australian blogger's posts on the subject. Be warned that the stuff is statistics-intensive.
