TL;DR
Two rhesus monkeys, exposed continuously to realistic patterns and levels of noise for 9 months, exhibited sustained elevations in blood pressure that did not return to baseline values after the noise ended, indicating no change in auditory sensitivity.
Abstract
Two rhesus monkeys, exposed continuously to realistic patterns and levels of noise for 9 months, exhibited sustained elevations in blood pressure that did not return to baseline values after the noise ended. Auditory brainstem responses, measured before and after exposure, indicated no change in auditory sensitivity.

The LancetPROLONGED EXPOSURE TO A STRESSFUL STIMULUS (NOISE) AS A CAUSE OF RAISED BLOOD-PRESSURE IN MAN
165 Citations1977Anders Jönsson, Lennart Hansson
It is suggested that replaced and prolonged exposure to a stressful stimulus (industrial noise severe and prolonged enough to cause a permanent loss of hearing at the relevant frequencies) may be a contributing factor to the rise in blood- pressure through a mechanism involving structural adaption of blood-vessels in response to repeated peaks of raised blood-pressure.

Auditory brain stem potentials were mapped over the head of the rhesus monkey following monaural clicks showing that waves I and V originate from single generators, whereas waves, II, III and IV originate from bilateral structures.
