Why do we not have any recent scientific studies with the Buddhist monks who participated in the paper «Long-term meditators self-induce high-amplitude gamma synchrony during mental practice»?

Richard Davidson says this paper was confirmed in a second study. We sah Mattieu Ricard participating in such a study in a video. But why are there no further studies?

Where there special terms and conditions with these people not to do this, not to repeat this study with the same people, or to talk about it, expept what they where allowed to? Similarly as with consumer grade heart rate monitor protocols in papers, which where never repeated in a second study? Testing protocols in different papers which where chosen so that the data from different papers cannot be compared to each other?:

90.3 Summary of the testing protocols of different studies

Is the situation better with this scientific study about mediation which was published in the year 2004 in PNAS than with accuracy studies about consumer grade monitors, paper which we have discussed on this site? None of the testing protocols where ever repeated in a second paper:

090. Review of Accuracy Studies of Consumer Grade Heart Rate Monitors: Methods, Testing Protocols, Reference Devices

If we look at interviews of people who eventually participated in this scientific study about meditation, if they participated in this study at all. Is there a list of people who participated in this study? Where these next to Mingour Rhinpoche an Matthieu Ricard the following people? We sah on one picture Rabjam Rinpoche with electrodes all over his head:

Do or did the following Buddhist monks participate in brain scan studies & are these the happiest men in the world?

Where the result of this PNAS study about meditation which was published in the year 2004 not too good to be true? Was the paper not rejected by Nature? And did Richard Davidson have friends at PNAS who accepted this paper for publication? And if this is true, is the quality of this scientific study about meditation better than the quality of products sold on Vedia Switzerland?:
