We recall the physical features of the parton distributions in the quantum statistical approach of the nucleon, which allows to describe simultaneously, unpolarized and polarized Deep Inelastic Scattering data. Some predictionsfrom a next-to-leading order QCD analysis are compared to recent experimental results and we stress the importance of some tests in the high-x region, to confirm the validity of this approach.
