Well, these are top notch clinical journals... There are plenty of peer-reviewed journals in different subjects...Most of the journals with international circulation are peer-reviewed.
Go to PubMed and try to find the journal overthere. If you see papers cited in PubMed, then it is peer-reviewed, if you don't then it is not.
