A+P Question - Dialysis

I have a few quick questions about renal failure/dialysis. I've been researching for hours and can't seem to find a good source.

What factors influence the rate of osmosis from the blood into the dialysis fluid. (relating this to high blood pressure)

and

How does the MWCO of a filtration membrane affect the movement of albumin from blood into urine?

Also, what are the physiological consequences of saturation with respect to glucose transport?

I'm not asking for answers, but I would like to be pointed in the right direction. I'm trying to put everything I've learned together and apply it to a concept (dialysis) that is completely new to me...

    You may want to try the specialty sections. I haven't a clue!

    We did not get that far into the details of dialysis.
