Hello everyone, is a case report that is peer-reviewed, published, and indexed on pubmed considered a peer-reviewed journal article?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

It's a publication!

I usually see them in journal heading listed as "case reports".

Look at some indexes of journals to see how they handle it.

Case reports are peer-reviewed. Generally, the only articles that do not undergo peer review are opinion pieces or certain types of letters to the editor (e.g. those written in response to a recently published article).

Thank you so much! How would you list it on your CV? "Peer Reviewed Journal Article" or specifically as a "Case report"?

Generally all peer-reviewed articles just go under a 'Peer-reviewed articles' section. Sometimes, institutions require you to be more specific and separate the section into original research, reviews, case reports, etc... but that's generally not until you're at an advanced level and it seems to be a minority that are that picky.
