Interventions/Control_1

Patients are given atorvastatin 10 mg/day under dietary therapy based on the "Clinical Practice Guidebook for Diagnosis and Treatment of Chronic Kidney Disease" and "Japan Atherosclerosis Society Guidelines for Prevention of Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Diseases". The dosage of atorvastatin can be increased up to 20mg/day when atorvastatin 10 mg/day fails to achieve the LDL-cholesterol target (less than 100mg/dL). When the target is not achieved with atorvastatin 20mg/day, antihyperlipidemic drugs except the other statins and fibrates can be added.

Interventions/Control_2

Patients are treated with dietary therapy alone based on the "Clinical Practice Guidebook for Diagnosis and Treatment of Chronic Kidney Disease" and "Japan Atherosclerosis Society Guidelines for Prevention of Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Diseases". Antihyperlipidemic durugs except statins can be administered when dietary therapy alone fails to achieve the LDL-cholesterol target (less than 100mg/dL) after three months. When patients have already been treated with antihyperlipidemic drugs except statins at enrollment, the drugs can be continued.
