English term or phrase: naked statistics
Hello,
I am translating an ooposition to an appeal brief, and one of the paragraphs refers to the probability of an event occurring and includes the phrase "naked statistics" but I can't seem to find an equivalent in Spanish.

the prhase is:

"A naked statistic merely reports an accidental grouping. It neither instantiates an abstract element nor is an ex post causal probability associated with such generalization. Since it is not related to any possibly causal generalization, a naked statistic is of no use.

thanks so much!!

Unas estadísticas, por sí mismas/por sí solas


Explanation:
Por contexto, se refiere a que una estadística solo ofrece evidencia sobre una correlacion o asociación, pero no confirma una relación de causalidad o un argumento. Para llegar a este tipo de conclusiones, es necesario algo más que los puros datos.
